Gita in bici di un giorno da Tongres a Beringen

This scenic cycling route takes you from Tongeren—the oldest city in Belgium—northwards to Beringen, over roughly 50 km of mostly paved, quiet roads and smooth cycleways. Tongeren is famous for its rich Roman heritage and its lively Sunday antique market, so consider a quick stroll before you head out.

The route rolls gently through the lush landscapes of Limburg province, making for a relaxed ride with just enough ascent to keep things interesting. Expect to pass farmland, small villages, and patches of forest. With plenty of asphalt and concrete under your wheels (and hardly any gravel to slow you down), the ride feels pleasantly smooth.

You'll finish in Beringen, a town with strong roots in coal mining. If you have time, check out be-MINE, a fantastic industrial heritage site with museums and even an indoor diving center. This journey is all about easy pedaling, local history, and treating yourself to the green heartland between two unique Belgian towns!
