Via Belgica LAW, 70 kilometer wandelen over de oude Romeinse wegen in Zuid Limburg. LAW is van Maastricht naar Rimburg

The Via Belgica is a total of 70 kilometers long walking route, divided into 5 stages, with which you follow in the footsteps of the Romans, right through South Limburg. The entire trail is approximately 400 kilometers long and runs from Boulogne-sur-Mer via Arras, Bavay, Tongeren, Heerlen and Maastricht to Jülich and Cologne. The Romans used this path as a military route, which was part of a complex network of roads and waterways reaching the farthest corners of the Roman Empire. The road network played a vital role in economic progress and military defense. It also opened up the possibility of developing settlements, such as Heerlen and Maastricht. With a walking guide full of information you walk through unknown parts of South Limburg and you learn everything about the history of the area, especially that of the Roman period. The route can be walked in either direction and is well marked. Walking weekends are also organised, with which you can walk the walking route under the guidance of a guide and learn even more about the unique history of the area (more information about this, see https://www.viabelgica.nl/).
