What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Freyr Viewpoint for its absolutely stunning and iconic view of Freyr Castle and the Meuse River, calling it a 'must-stop' for photos. However, many note that the area can suffer from litter and overflowing trash bins, detracting from the otherwise beautiful scenery.
"Very beautiful view to chateau and gardens on other side of Maas river! I don't give full 5 stars because the area is quite dirty, trash bins are full of trash, some garbage is on the ground. There is picnic table there, but it won't be pleasant to use because of garbage around. But it is worth for a short stop to enjoy the view!"

"Going in the direction of Bouillon coming from Dinant (The Saxophone city) it's worth to stop 5 min at this location to enjoy the great view on the Meuse and the castle of Freÿr."
