Between the old town and the Citadelle hill stretches a green slope of vegetable gardens, terraces and walls: the Coteaux. It mixes nature and heritage, with the terraces of the Teutonic knights, remains of the thirteenth-century wall and the Montagne de Bueren, and offers some of the best views of Liège and the Meuse. There are five signposted walks.

The terraces of the Minimes open from 38 rue Pierreuse, every day from 9:00 to 17:00 from late October to late March and from 9:00 to 18:00 the rest of the year. The tourist office sells a commented itinerary for €0.50.
