Great options, no matter or sporty (or not) you are
To relive the best parts of the race, go for the Best Of itinerary. This loop, from the Place Saint-Lambert in Liège, was designed by analysing the last few years’ routes. There are two shorter versions, that do not go all the way to Bastogne: one starts from Tilff, the other from Sprimont.
If you are looking to push your limits, try the iconic uphills challenge: it will be hard but definitely worth the effort. Ready to follow in your favourite cyclist’s bike rides?
