Route:
From Baudouin Bridge, you leave Huy by taking the RAVeL on the right bank of the Meuse towards Ben-Ahin. The RAVeL will take you safely to Namur.
To reach the centre of Namur, leave the RAVeL Meuse by taking the Ardennes Bridge to cross the river. At the roundabout at the end of the bridge, turn left onto Boulevard Isabelle Brunell. At the next roundabout, you almost come back on yourself, and at the roundabout exit, you take the cycle path on your right. Then you immediately go down the ramp on your right, which brings you onto the RAVeL on the left bank of the Sambre (at its confluence with the Meuse). At the bottom of the ramp, you take a right. You go under two bridges. The next narrow path on your right allows you to reach the centre of Namur.
If you decide to continue towards Charleroi, just continue on the RAVeL on the left bank of the Sambre.
Surfacing: mostly smooth. Alternating between asphalt and concrete.
Incline: no slope.
Signposting: Follow signposts for "La Meuse à vélo" to the Ardennes Bridge in Namur. Then follow the signs for the "EV3" towards the centre of Namur and Charleroi.
Safety, precautions: Watch out for car traffic leaving Huy and entering Namur.
