There is another shorter and bicycle friendly way to get from Liège to Antwerp and that's along the towpaths of the Koning Albertkanaal (King Albert Canal). That's about 130 km, while my suggestion between Antwerp and Liège is about 180 km. One big difference however. Due to the enlargement of the Albertkanaal in recent decades, the banks are quite monotonous. But if you're looking for a car-free-cyclist-speedway (!), the canal will be your best friend.

If you're more into enjoying Belgian rural landscapes and the intimicy of 19th century canals lined up with trees, this route will make your mouth water. While cycling from Ghent to Liège, you will discover the magnificent river Scheldt (Schelde), Antwerp, a first small part of the Albertkanaal, the Dessel-Schotenkanaal, the Bocholt-Herentalskanaal, the Zuid-Willemsvaart, again a small part of the Albertkanaal, the river Maas (La Meuse) and Liège.

A small problem however. The cue sheet doesn't always show all of my extra information such as names of villages and cities, places to stay, ... Reloading the page may help and if you're printing something, check out if you have all the needed information.
