August 11, 2022,Fietstocht De Panne - Bergues (via Vélomaritime)

Easy tour to the historic, walled and walled town of Bergues with its famous belfry !!! Back via the Vélomaritime, a well signposted and car-free cycle path that runs from Bergues towards Dunkirk through the Bois des Forts !! Exceptionally beautiful! - Also wonderful for walking... (correct distance is 60.97 km)
