The Zuid-Willemsvaart is the canal that connects the Meuse with the Scheldt. It was built to get from Liège to the Dutch ports more quickly. The cycle path is right next to it, as straight as the canal, and takes you through this varied landscape with meadows, locks and settlements.

Perfect bike path and always straight along the canal. Great to drive.

The cycle path along the canal is well developed. Every now and then you have to change sides. The path leads past a charming landscape, nice towns and witnesses of the past, such as B. the hard coal mine Eisden.
