Via Belgica lange afstandswandeling

Via Belgica lange afstandswandeling

After two thousand years you can walk the Via Belgica and its Roman highlights again. The Romans still puzzle you as to the exact route, but they have left quite a few traces.

During this long-distance route you will experience Roman South Limburg, as the Roman soldiers already did centuries ago. The Via Belgica is an old Roman road that ran from Boulogne sur-Mer in France to Cologne in Germany.

On that route, the Via Belgica crosses South Limburg. She enters the Netherlands at Maastricht and leaves the Netherlands again at Rimburg. The presence of this great Roman road has had a lot of influence on the surrounding area.

This route is signposted via special black Via Belgica signs. You start at the station square in Maastricht and can then walk from station to station via five routes . Buy your ticket online and travel easily with Arriva to Maastricht station.
