My flat land, my Flanders land. Tura-land, Bachten de Kupe, the land of Home Grown and the land of the Great War — all these names unmistakably refer to one place. When we had to choose a starting point for our half-day route, it could only be one city: Veurne.

This route through the Westhoek brings you completely to rest. Some highlights are:

• The city center of Veurne
• Beauvoorde Castle
• The IJzertoren
• The Knokkebrug Tower
• Westvleteren
• The German Tower
• 't Hof van Commerce (local product Picon)

This route was carefully compiled by Wim Depraetere on behalf of Motoren & Toerisme. You can read his accompanying report at www.motoren-toerisme.be.
