The Cannerberg is a hill near Maastricht, which is partly on Dutch and partly on Belgian territory. The hill is named after the town of Kanne, which is located just across the border in Belgium. The Cannerberg forms the western slope of the Jekerdal, opposite the Sint-Pietersberg. The ridge is an offshoot of the Haspengouw Plateau. Part of the hill was excavated between 1930 and 1939 for the construction of the Albert Canal, cutting the ridge off from the larger plateau.
The following profile has been revealed in the ridge:
