Dinant, WNA “ Service was alright, but it is conveniently located near the main bridge with lots of seating! ” In 2 reviews 2.


Its old town is perhaps one the most impressive sights in Wallonia, but the locality is relatively remote. The main sights are all close to each other and not very numerous, while accommodation opportunities are scarce, so Dinant is probably a good option for a nice day trip from larger Belgian cities such as Brussels, Charleroi or Liège. It also can serve as the starting point for a more thorough exploration of the Ardennes.

Dinant name stems from Celtic for 'divine valley'.

A tourist information office can be found at the Dinant and the Upper Meuse Tourist Office, Avenue Cadoux, 8 (Near the bridge on the left bank), +32 82 22 28 70. 09:00—17:00, only a block or two from the train station and offers free WiFi.

Get in

Dinant is not very well connected to major cities in Belgium as it is on a side railway line forking out from the mainline in Namur. It is actually easier and quicker to get to Dinant by car, thanks to Belgium's excellent motorway system.

By plane

The closest airports are Brussels (BRU), Charleroi (CRL) and Liège (LGG). Getting from either of them to Namur by public transport is a bit complicated and will take around 2-2.5 hours.

From Brussels Airport, take the train to Brussels-Nord, and change there for the hourly direct train to Dinant. If you do not want to wait for the next one, you can take a train to Namur (departs every 20 minutes), and change for one of the more frequent Dinant-bound trains there. Either way, getting from Brussels-Nord to Dinant by train takes around 1.5 hours.

From Charleroi Airport, you need to take the bus to Charleroi Sud railway station, then a train to Namur, and then change to one departing for Dinant. Each part of the journey takes around 30 minutes, and both trains depart every half an hour, so you should be able to get from CRL to Dinant in about 2 hours.

From Liège Airport, you need to take the bus 57 to Liège-Guillemins train station (20 mins, bus schedule coordinated with train departures to Brussels or Namur), which runs only a few times a day and not at all on weekends or holidays. From Guillemins, take a train to Namur (44 mins, every half an hour) and change there to the train to Dinant (also every 30 mins, journey takes another half an hour).

By train

The Dinant Railway Station is conveniently located in the centre of Dinant, about 5 minutes walk to the river, from where you can see the Citadel and the main parts of Dinant. From Brussels, the train to Dinant takes around 1.5h, with the exact time depending on the station in Brussels you choose as your point of departure. Trains to Dinant depart every hour. From other locations in Belgium other than those close by, as well as from abroad, you need to change in either Namur or Brussels.

By car

The A4 motorway (E114) from Brussels to Luxembourg City passes immediately east of Dinant, the drive takes a little over an hour from either capital. Namur is also on the same motorway. From other major cities in Wallonia, take A15 (E42) and turn into A4 at Daussoulx. From destinations elsewhere or farther away, make your way to either of the abovementioned motorways.

Get around

No need to take public transport at all since Dinant is a very small town and the main tourist sites are within walking distance.

What to See in Dinant

Collégiale Notre Dame de Dinant (Collegiate church). The church dominating the city's riverbank stands in the place where a previous romanesque one was destroyed by rocks falling from the cliff in 1227. The collegiate church took many centuries to be completed, during which the original plan to build two towers was abandoned in favour of the single one with the onion dome we see today. This is why the church's facade is so unusually tall. The interior is even more striking, almost as tall as wide and twice as long, flanked by columns appearing both sleek in comparison to the structure and thick in human scale. The interior is kept in the simple gothic style characteristic for the Meuse region - this is thanks to the restoration work in the nienteenth century to bring stylistic uniformity to the interior. After the church's destruction in the First World War, the church was rebuilt verbatim to how it looked like before the war.

Citadel of Dinant, Place Reine Astrid 3, +32 82 22 36 70. Daily 10:00—18:00. On a cliff, more than 100 meters above the River Meuse, it offers spectacular views of the town and countryside. A fortification may have stood on this spot as long ago as the fourth century, and the Bishop Prince of Liège certainly ordered the construction of a fortress on this spot in 1051, but the present structure dates to the early 19th century. It is reached from the town either by cable car or by the 408 steps cut into the hillside. The citadel plays host to a small Arms Museum and several interesting art pieces that reveal the glorious past of this Meuse town. €8,50 for adults, €6,00 for children aged 4-12.

Grotte la Merveilleuse, Route de Philippeville 142, +32 82 22 22 10. This cave was discovered in 1904 and is one of the most beautiful ones in Belgium. There are small waterfalls inside the cave. A visit to the beautiful caves is highly recommended. They are easy to visit. A 50-minute guided tour costs 9€ for adults and 6€ for children. The hourly guided tours are in French, Dutch and English.

Rocher Bayard (Bayard rock). The forty meters tall rock needle at the Meuse riverbank according to the local legend been separated from the main rock mass by the strike of the hoof by Bayard, the magical horse carrying the four sons of Duke Ayman on the run from Charlemagne. The reality, however, is more prosaic - the separation happened in the times of Louis the XIV in order to build the road along the Meuse still in place today.

Dinant

Le triomphe de la lumière (triump of light). Designed by Antoine Wertz and originally meant to be put atop the rock of Dinant, the statue weilding a sword and a torch is said to have inspired Frederick Auguste Bartholdi when he created the Statue of Liberty in New York City.

Ibis Dinant, 16 Rempart d'Albeau, +32 82 21 15 00. If the city's best-ranking hotel is an Ibis, it speaks volumes about the local accommodation opportunities.
