### Brugge Unlocked

Distance

Duration

2–3 hrs

Difficulty

Easy

Tier

Explorer

The city on your own terms. Markt and Belfort, Rozenhoedkaai, the Church of Our Lady with the Michelangelo inside, then it goes quiet: the Godshuizen almshouses, the walled Begijnhof, the Minnewater. Halfway round is the Halve Maan brewery, brewing on that spot since 1856. Finishes past the Sint-Janshuis windmill and along the Potterierei.

### The Old Tower

Distance

25 km

Duration

3–4 hrs

Difficulty

Easy

Tier

Explorer

Out into open polder to Lissewege, a village of whitewashed houses round a canal that most visitors never reach. Wetlands on the way where redshank, lapwing and heron are ordinary sights if you slow down. Climb the 13th-century tower for a view across the polders in every direction.

### The Castle Forests

Distance

30 km

Duration

3–4 hrs

Adventure

A full day. Out along the Damse Vaart to Damme, where the old town hall looks untouched in five centuries, then a loop north through Koolkerke, Oostkerke, Moerkerke, Hoeke and Lapscheure on the Dutch border. Back across the water on the little Kobus bike ferry.
