Quick ride by bicycle from Liège to Ans

This route takes you from the vibrant city of Liège up to the quiet suburb of Ans, covering just under 7 kilometers. Starting off in Liège, famous for its lively riverfront and waffles, you’ll ride mostly on proper cycleways (about two-thirds of the trip), with stretches of smooth asphalt and concrete under your wheels. The first part is fairly flat, but be ready for a solid climb—gaining over 120 meters in elevation—especially as you leave the valley and head towards Ans.

You’ll roll through some relaxed neighborhoods and green spaces, with only brief crossings on busy roads. Ans sits up on the “heights” above Liège and marks the finish line for the legendary Liège–Bastogne–Liège cycling race—so you’ll get a taste of classic cycling history as you go! It’s a short but challenging ride, perfect if you’re looking to shake up your regular route or test your climbing legs. Enjoy the view back towards Liège as you reach Ans!
