Hire a bicycle and cycle up and through the Citadel. This is better than doing it on foot as the access road is mostly wide and uninteresting. There is also a network of mountain bike itineraries beginning and ending in Namur, but the signage, which is very good at the beginning, with large coloured arrows painted on the road, suddenly vanishes without explanation.
A tour company in nearby Dinant Les Kayaks Bleus, www.lessekayaks.be organises river kayaking trips. It would probably be possible to paddle downstream all the way to Holland and the North Sea.
There are public swimming pools in Salzinnes and Jambes.
