Our range of Adagio leisurely walking holidays and sightseeing tours are designed at a slower pace than the average Ramblers Walking Holidays, perfect for those who would like to slow things down but keep active.
Overview
Belgium is a country of two parts. The northern, Flemish speaking region of Flanders, famed for its medieval cities of Bruges, Antwerp and Gent; and the southern region of Wallonia with the thermal town of Spa, also known for Formula 1, WWI battle sites and one of nature's unspoiled areas of the Ardennes Forest.
We head south to Wallonia, easily reached by train from Brussels. From the historic city of Liege, after exploring with our local guide, we sample some of the best parts of the Herve region, following Greenways (disused railway tracks) between picturesque villages, walking on a stretch of Belgium's Camino de Santiago, as pilgrims have done for centuries, and exploring the High Fens, a protected reserve with abundant wildlife, in the Belgian Ardennes. There will be time to taste the cheese from the region and sample beer at an abbey where monks still do the brewing today.
Further afield, we'll take the train to the southern Dutch university city of Maastricht, where our guide takes us through its historical past and where we enjoy a boat trip on the river Mass.

Galicia is famed for its gardens and flowers, especially the Camellia. Traditional Galician pazos, or manor houses, are dotted over the countryside and were once homes to kings and nobility, all having splendid gardens for us to visit.
