Camino in Belgium

[pasenes]

Dear all, it seems that in France is still not possible to travel more than 10km, therefore we are opting for doing 120km of camino in Belgium where we reside. Can someone advise which route si the one market best / with less risk to get lost and miss the tracks? thank you!!! and where I can find the map or which guide

I have not walked in Belgium so I can not give you a detailed advice. However, the website of the Flemmish Genootschap may be a good starting point.

See this map:

Pelgrimswegen door België – Vlaams Compostelagenootschap

compostelagenootschap.be

On the menu on the right (Pelgrimswegen voor stappers) you can find more detailed information about the routes (including which guidebooks are available).

Maps of the Belgian camino routes toward Santiago de Compostela are on this site:

Cartes des chemins vers Compostelle en Belgique

Cartes des chemins vers saint-Jacques de Compostelle en Belgique

verscompostelle.be

The rest of the site is very informative. Pierre Swalus is the person behind the site. I expect he would offer some advice about the routes to walk, or point you to some relevant articles if you contact him.

This link may give you some suggestions.

If you pan about and scroll in you may find something to your liking.

Usually the routes with a Scallop Shell icon are parts of paths to Compostela.

Clicking on "routes" in the bottom right corner will gives you names. Click on a name and you may be lucky to see other details.

This photo was taken at Leuven in May 2011.

I wish you kia ka'ha, kia mā'ia, kia mana'wa'nui (be strong, patient and confident)
