Belgium: A Great Place to Cycle! Why?

In Belgium, every cyclist can find what he is looking for.

Cycling by numbers: 

It’s really easy. The Belgians have a brilliant system for navigating the cycling path network! Main intersections in the bike track network have been assigned a number. 

You’ll find them on the map we provide you with. On your handlebars, you’ll have a holder with a list of numbers to follow for that day's route. It could read something like this: 51-02-03-04-87-86-06-07-25... Starting at intersection number 51, follow the signpost to intersection number 02. From there - you guessed it - follow the signs to intersection number 03 and so on. 

• You will follow the numbers of the junctions and cycle from junction to junction
• At every numbered intersection there’s a big sign with a map of the surroundings where you can see where you are and what options you have.
• The junctions that come together are signed with white-green signs.
