Description by the author

NL - Ruwweg de grenzen van het vroegere Graafschap Vlaanderen volgend, neemt deze route je mee voor 602 km wandelplezier van topniveau. Door de vlotte bereikbaarheid met het openbaar vervoer is de wandelroute gemakkelijk op te delen in etappes naar ieders voorkeuren en mogelijkheden.  

Je wordt verwend met heel wat onverwacht en rijk gevarieerd natuurschoon: van de weidse polderlandschappen in het Noordwesten via de majestueuze Scheldoevers, de mysterieuze Denderstreek, de pittoreske Vlaamse Ardennen en de eigenzinnige Westhoek tot de duinreservaten en de brede stranden van de Noordzeekust. En om het wandelfeest compleet te maken, wordt al dat moois afgewisseld met fascinerend industrieel erfgoed, historische provinciesteden en charmante dorpjes. Deze in twee richtingen wit-rood bewegwijzerde route is één van de langste rondwandelwegen in Europa. 

EN - Roughly following the borders of the former County of Flanders, the GR 5A Hiking Loop of Flanders provides you with 602 km of high-quality hiking pleasure. The trail is waymarked with white and red strips in both directions and is easily accessible by public transport. It can therefore comfortably be divided into stages according to everyone's preferences and capabilities.

The GR 5A spoils the hiker with a bounty of natural beauty, as it runs from the vast polder landscapes in the northwest via the majestic Scheldt banks, the mysterious Dender region, the picturesque Flemish Ardennes and the quirky Westhoek region to the dunes and wide beaches of the North Sea coast. The cherry on the cake are the fascinating industrial heritage, historical towns and charming villages that add to the route’s variety. Fun fact: the GR 5A is one of the longest circular hiking trails in Europe.
