RKH Belgian Coast - Westflandern mit Brügge

The Belgian North Sea coast can be reached faster from many parts of Germany than the German coast. Within a few hours by train or car you can reach fashionable seaside resorts such as Blankenberge or De Haan, family- and camping-friendly destinations such as Middelkerke or Westend, and water sports paradises such as De Panne. But not only those who want to breathe in the harbor air, sunbathe in front of the dunes or explore nature reserves with interesting flora and fauna will find what they are looking for on the Belgian coast: History and culture enthusiasts will also gain insight into the eventful history and culture of West Flanders in finds from the Roman period and the Middle Ages, in churches and monasteries, open-air galleries and at memorials of two world wars.

In his travel guide, author Günter Schenk invites you to discover all facets of West Flanders and the French and Dutch neighboring regions. He points out places for comfortable swimming holidays, fascinating nature experiences, unique walking and cycling routes and interesting city explorations. Bruges and Ostend are depicted in exceptional detail. But the people, their way of life and the culinary specialties of the region are also not neglected. Typical dishes, beers and wines of Flanders are presented and shopping addresses for fresh fish and seafood are revealed.

Each chapter begins with a two-page spread introducing the contents with an overview map of the region, highlights, and page references. Page number boxes, color coordinated with the chapters, facilitate orientation. The extensive foreword contains overview pages with descriptions of all regions, an annual overview of festivals and events, route suggestions and personal top tips from the author. Naturally, the guide contains tried and tested and practical tips on travel matters from AZ as well as a small Flemish language guide for communication on site.
