If the capital of Belgium is <a href="kavval://cities/40b26d4f-e325-44fa-b793-cf46d88e4992" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Brussels</a>, the number one attraction for travelers in Belgium is the Venice of the North, <a href="kavval://cities/c6fcc769-5628-4372-bd3a-5680bfbc8da1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bruges</a>! This medieval city, surrounded by and crisscrossed with canals, is a truly lovely place to visit. Like the "real" <a href="kavval://cities/79e4205f-ef8d-4d4b-93bd-6abd5ef9b334" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Venice</a> in <a href="kavval://countries/bf9d0ae3-bd54-4be7-8994-c53c42cfd0f3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Italy</a>, Bruges owes its architectural wealth to the prosperous era of merchants. You should know that in the 15th century, the city was one of the most powerful in Europe... Brussels, for its part, is also highly appreciated by its guests, notably for its vibrant cultural scene. Music, theater, painting—Brussels is lived day and night! <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tintin" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tintin</a>, <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spirou_(personnage)" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spirou</a> and <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucky_Luke" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lucky Luke</a> are the flagships of <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bande_dessin%C3%A9e_belge" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Belgian comics</a>, known worldwide and whose traces you’ll find in Brussels... Painters 🧑🏻‍🎨 have also shaped the country’s history. Set out to discover the many museums displaying works by <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_Magritte" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Magritte</a>, <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Paul_Rubens" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rubens</a> or <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Ensor" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ensor</a>, to name just a few... Liège, located near the borders with the <a href="kavval://countries/1bfd63ee-f86d-4fb0-aefb-f57e748d643e" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Netherlands</a> and <a href="kavval://countries/88499f9e-b753-44b7-9b26-8baad00b18e8" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Germany</a>, is a former principality. The city’s prestige, governed for centuries by a prince-bishop, is revealed in particular through its many religious buildings, such as Saint Paul’s Cathedral. The Coteaux de la Citadelle district will definitely win your vote... And since we’re at it, let’s take advantage of the city’s terrain to show you that Belgium isn’t that flat! The Province of Liège is home to the Hautes Fagnes State Nature Reserve, where Belgium’s highest point rises: the <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_de_Botrange" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Signal de Botrange</a> (694 meters). Lovers of <a href="kavval://tags/off-road" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">nature</a> can feast on the fauna and flora of this region, covered with peat bogs and <a href="kavval://tags/forest" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">forests</a> 🌲, like the <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hertogenwald" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hertogenwald</a>. The <a href="kavval://tags/seaside" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">seaside</a> on the western side of the country is popular with Belgians for its beaches, especially when it’s sunny ☀️. Oh yes, we almost forgot: check the weather before choosing your weekend in Belgium—the weather is sometimes cold 🥶 and rainy 💦... Well, you can always enjoy a good Belgian beer to warm up. Since Belgium’s climate isn’t suitable for growing grapes, Belgian monks "took revenge" by producing beer 🍺. And the quality is still there centuries later. Enjoy in moderation...... especially if you’re coming to run in Belgium! Just look at how the "almost" flat country has put together a nice race calendar for you. Whether <a href="kavval://pages/30300aa8-919d-44ac-8ca6-015258ce663e" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">on the road</a>, on the <a href="kavval://pages/19c6236d-b5b7-431a-87ba-e50b74dcd383" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">trails</a> or for <a href="kavval://pages/5b49242e-6288-4e30-8649-74eb1ab8563f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">walkers</a>! The homeland <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_Merckx" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">of Eddy Merckx</a> is home to a bunch of great races, some with evocative names! How about taking part in the event <a href="kavval://events/68f174bb-1142-45e8-879d-656c7a17aa26" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Last Man Standing</a>, a date counting toward the <a href="kavval://tags/utmb-world-series" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">UTMB® World Series</a> that offers different courses (<a href="kavval://pages/16eb00b2-dceb-4d02-a529-7383287dd5d7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Discovery Trail</a>, <a href="kavval://pages/e491137f-198b-4414-a832-7aefb0439dec" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Short Trail</a>, <a href="kavval://pages/4ce0ea33-aa06-4ed4-98b2-aa5ee46683e3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Long Trail</a>) including one over 150 km? You didn’t think you’d come to Belgium to suffer, did you?! Well, yes. Go prove the <a href="kavval://events/884d56d8-e77a-4ca4-ba30-da9e78c95b86" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trail des 600 Boitheux</a> (in <a href="kavval://cities/64a54606-9e74-422e-9f0d-5b0697f0965b" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Theux</a> near Liège) wrong by finishing it properly! Road-racing fans have already circled the <a href="kavval://events/34126ea3-acb1-4e8a-a73a-4379e12b362d" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Brussels Marathon</a>, which takes place in the Belgian capital. Not far from there, south of the city, the Sonian Forest hosts every year the <a href="kavval://events/79d79c70-45b4-4d1b-b747-90ab8d121a64" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Brussels Trail</a>! Finally, let’s not forget walkers, who can have a field day at the magical <a href="kavval://events/6496508f-942d-4a8f-ad7b-626846b5bb28" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trail des Fées</a>. This event takes place in <a href="kavval://cities/95f59a44-b4d1-4f5c-a5fc-e439d571557d" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bertrix</a>, in the southeast of Belgium, in the least densely populated province in the country. Peaceful in the forest 🌲, in the heart of the Flemish Ardennes...Belgium isn’t limited to trails and boulevards 🚴. <a href="https://www.finishers.com/disciplines/triathlon/triathlon-en-belgique" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Triathlon</a> enthusiasts have a prime date on the Flemish coast: the <a href="https://www.finishers.com/course/ironman-de-knocke-heist" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Knocke-Heist Ironman 70.3</a> lines up 1.9 km of swimming in the North Sea, 90 km of cycling on the flat roads of the Belgian coast, and 21 km of running along the seafront—an ideal half-distance format to test yourself without (too much) suffering. Two wheels aren’t left out either: the <a href="https://www.finishers.com/course/belgium-bike-festival-the-classics" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Belgium Bike Festival The Classics</a> in Andenne, in the heart of Walloon Condroz, offers <a href="https://www.finishers.com/disciplines/gravel/gravel-en-belgique" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">gravel</a> and road routes ranging from 20 to 180 km on the region’s rolling roads and stony paths. A two-wheel festival where everyone finds their distance, from a relaxed Sunday to the peloton’s tough one 🏅.Belgium doesn’t mess around.
