- Keep some lose change with you. While you can use some of the toilets for free, you have to spend about 70 cents or a penny for the others.
- Keep plenty of snacks and drinks with you when you go to the circuit; avoid buying eatables from there because they can be too expensive. Instead, buy food items from nearby villages of Francorchamps and Malmedy. Do try out of the waffles; they are just yummy.
