Bicycle Bridge and Lock Complex Godsheide

Highlight • Bridge

Liège is 60 meters above sea level. Six locks bridge the difference in height with Antwerp. One of these locks is the Godsheide Lock, built after the construction of the Albert Canal between 1930 and 1938. The lock is 39.8 meters above sea level at its highest point and 29.7 meters at its lowest. Filling the 16-meter-deep lock requires 53,000 cubic meters of water, roughly equivalent to the volume of 17 Olympic swimming pools.

Borggrave Ponds

Highlight • Lake

The name Borggraaf was already used in the fifteenth century and refers to the medieval castle that must have stood here.
The Borggravevijverloop originates in this area. At the bend of the Genkersteenweg, this stream is incorporated into the Herkenrodebeek. A little further it flows into the canal via the Zusterloosterbeek.

Cycling Through the Water

Highlight • Bridge

The cycle path through the water leads cyclists over a 212-meter-long and three-meter-wide concrete path, with water at eye level on both sides. Swans and other waterfowl swim along the banks, curiously watching the cyclists. Since its opening, interest in this unique cycle path has been enormous. On average, 800 visitors per day explore this unforgettable part of the Limburg cycle network, with peaks on Saturdays and Sundays, and on some days even up to 5,000 cyclists.
