Hiking

The citadel of Namur is one of the largest citadels in Europe. Its vast network of underground passages earned it the nickname "The termite mound of Europe" by Napoleon I. A must-see place with a magnificent view of the Meuse Valley.

Hiking

Actually, the whole long outer wall is a huge viewpoint. Just walk along it and enjoy the wonderful views over the river and the city.
