August 12, 2022,Von Basel via Rotterdam nach Bremen Tag 9 Hermeton-sur-Meuse - Namur

Today only a short stage to Namur. The landscape is as beautiful today as it was yesterday. Dinant is definitely worthwhile, but very crowded and for Namur you should also take a little time and go up to the fortress, preferably with the cable car. You should also not miss the many small streets with the many beautiful little shops …

August 20, 2023,De Namur à Givet

From Namur to Givet!
In reality from Namur to Dinant is enough (a little after Dinant but hardly more).
We did not know this valley, even if, living in Brussels, we had heard of it. It is absolutely worth the trip!
It is possible to go back and forth during the day, and it is very easy to get by …

June 7, 2023,Frankreich-Rundfahrt 🇫🇷 Etappe 35: Givet - Namur

Today we leave France 🇫🇷. We cycle down from Givet along the Meuse. In its wild past, the river has carved out some rock bands. 😃

We pass some locks. Then we reach Dinant, a tourist resort nestled tightly against the rocks. I visit the church of Notre Dame. A huge stained glass window on the west side and the …

July 21, 2024,Belgien-Tag11_Givet-Namur

Along the Maas from Givet via Dinant to Namur.
Well-developed cycle path. Shortly after Givet you cross the border to Belgium again.
Dinant is a place worth seeing, birthplace of Adolphe Sax, the inventor of the saxophone. Another beautiful section, as the Maas changes direction, there are always new views. In Namur, a trip to the citadel is worthwhile. Panoramic …

July 21, 2022,Dag 3: Namur - Givet

The first part after Namur is full of villas. Just after Dinant the most beautiful rock formations so far. Even spotted the rock that Huub was sitting on. Here a bit along the road, but with sufficient bicycle space. Reasonable falafel in Dinant, with a lot of fries as compensation. July 21 is a national holiday in Belgium, in honor …
