  • The Gr5 Trail Free
    FREE THE GR5 TRAIL PDF Paddy Dillon | 320 pages | 30 Apr 2016 | Cicerone Press | 9781852848286 | English | Cumbria, United Kingdom This is Europe's Most Beautiful Hiking Trail The GR5 is one of the most popular long distance hikes in Europe. And with reasons: the trail connects the The Gr5 Trail Sea with the Mediterranean and crosses The Gr5 Trail of the best and most varied mountain ranges of the continent. Along this trail, friendships were coined and hiking clubs were born Not surprisingly, a lot of information can be found on the world wide web. The trail starts in the Netherlands, Bergen op Zoom. Soon the path enters Flanders and its sandy grounds and typical villages. The GR5 again enters the Netherlands, the old and interesting city of Maastricht. Next is the Ardennes region of Belgium, the romantic and forested hills with its grey houses and farms. Third country is Luxembourg. The path follows the border with Germany, along the meandering river Moselle and its castles. In France the GR5 explores the Vosges, then the Jura, sometimes crossing the border with Switzerland, and finally, after crossing the lake of Geneva by ferry, it follows the length of the Alps. Highlight here is the Mont Blanc. The trail ends in Nice, good place for a refreshing bath and good meal before returning home. Many hikers made a life experience of this hike, often returning year after year to tag another section on the record. Nowadays the pilgrimage to Saint James of Compostela is probably more popular, highlighting the spiritual needs people probably have.

  • Flanders Naturally!
    Flanders Naturally! A new theme, a new ambition Flanders is more than art cities, talented painters, cycling champions, creative brewers and inspiring choreographers. In addition to centuries of heritage or groundbreaking craftsmanship, our region also offers nature! From the air, Flanders looks like a natural mosaic that retains the same appeal on the ground as well. But nature and culture are never far apart in our densely populated country. You traverse a picturesque cultural landscape where you are never devoid of art and heritage via parks, polders, clay pits, rolling hills, dunes, marshes, brook valleys, rivers, meadows and forests. And of a cosy pub, waiting for you behind every bend in the road. All this is Flanders: in pocket-size. Of course, Flanders is within everyone's reach, every day of the year. Flanders Naturally is a new theme that VisitFlanders has not yet focused on. Forests, parks and agricultural landscapes as well as the waterways, the coast and the North Sea fall under this theme. With Flanders Naturally we look at both the green and the blue attractions. Within Flanders Naturally, we want to opt resolutely for sustainable, meaningful, society-building projects that promote the well-being of the local population. In the long term, this choice will ensure proud residents and entrepreneurs, and a healthy environment where visitors can also feel at home. ©Peter Baas page 1 of 17 Discover nature in Flanders how you would like to... … from point to point: cycling and walking nodes calles ‘knooppuntennetwerk’ You can create your own walking or cycling tour or choose from the fixed offer that have been created by following the numbers.
