The Passerelle of Caestert is a spectacular hiking suspension bridge, fifty meters above the Albert Canal between million-year-old limestone and chalk walls. Every visitor who buys a ticket for the Passerelle supports the Grenspark Jeker & Maas, as the proceeds are used to strengthen nature and the landscape in the area. Reserve your ticket here.
