Belgium – Ghent

Ghent Self-Guided City Walk

Ghent is a lovely medieval city less than 60km from Brussels. During the Middle Ages, it was one of the richest and most powerful cities in Europe, and the architecture from this time reflects this.

This Ghent Self Guided City Walk will take you along canals, by churches and to a huge castle in the middle of the town.

Ghent is a beautiful city to look at, but be sure to try the food and drink while you are there – your stomach will thank you for it.

Walk Distance 2.2km / 1.3 miles mostly flat unless you choose to climb the Belfort tower.
