Plan your cycling routes on the Belgian coast using the numbered junction network
This ANWB cycling map covers the Belgian coast and the hinterland between Bruges, Knokke, and Kortrijk. Designed for cyclists, it uses the numbered junction system (knooppunten), a signposting network widely used in Belgium and the Netherlands that makes it easy to create your own cycling route.
The principle is simple: each junction in the cycle network is identified by a number. Before setting off, simply note the sequence of numbers corresponding to your desired route. On the ground, signs indicate these numbered junctions, allowing you to follow your chosen route or easily modify it along the way. This map therefore serves as both a planning and navigation tool for organizing a customized cycling trip.
The area covered includes a large part of the Belgian coastline as well as the Flemish hinterland. Cyclists can explore the region's characteristic landscapes: sea dikes, polders, canals, meadows, and Flemish villages. Routes allow you to ride along the North Sea, cross natural areas near the coast, or reach historic cities like Bruges, renowned for its canals and medieval heritage.
The map also includes the LF (Landelijke Fietsroutes), the national cycle routes that cross Belgium and the Netherlands. These major long-distance routes can be combined with the numbered junction network to create longer journeys or to connect different regions.
Beyond the cycle paths and routes, the map offers a wealth of tourist information useful to cyclists: museums, restaurants, campsites, and other points of interest located along the routes. It also indicates road infrastructure, some ferry lines, and various services that can facilitate the planning of a day trip or a longer cycling holiday.
Thanks to its 1:100,000 scale, this map offers a clear overview of the region while maintaining sufficient detail for planning an accurate route. Its compact folded size makes it easy to carry in a handlebar bag or backpack.
This map is part of a series of ANWB cycling maps dedicated to numbered junction networks, designed to help you explore different regions and create your own routes. It's a practical tool for cycle tourists wishing to discover the Belgian coast and its diverse landscapes independently.
