Parking is available in the Jardin pour la Paix car park.
N.B.1. To avoid the first part of the climb to the Citadel, you can also park higher up, in the Citadel car park.
(S/E) With your back to the car park, follow Rue Bombelle to the right. This first part of the climb is very steep, on an old cobbled road lined with sandstone walls and passing under arches.
(1) At the citadel car park, turn right at Take a sharp right. Climb the steep cobbled road up to the entrance to the monument.
(2) After passing through the arch before the drawbridge (which marks the paid entrance to the monument), the rampart walk starts on the right. Walk around the citadel in an anti-clockwise direction.
N.B.2. Almost the entire length of the rampart walk is divided between a wide, gravel path below and a narrower path at the top of the embankment. To enjoy the panoramic view of the entire town, it is advisable to stay on the upper path if you can.
N.B.3. Depending on the season, you may have to pass through a gate (spring-loaded) to prevent sheep from grazing on the surrounding lawns.
(2) Back at the entrance to the monument, walk down the paved road to the citadel car park.
(1) Turn left and walk back down to the car park where you started (S/E).
More of a visit than a walk, a superb place to stretch your legs after 300 km of driving (Belgian) thank you
