Via Limburgica, Thorn - Eghezée, 130 km, 5 days
The Via Limburgica is a pilgrim way to Santiago de Compostela. It starts at the Dutch-Belgium border in the picturesque village Thorn. Pilgrims from the Netherlands reach Thorn via another pilgrim trail, the Pelgrimspad. They have a choice here: continuing over the Pelgrimspad to Maastricht, or turn west over the Via Limburgica to Eghezée via Tongeren. The first option is a more interesting hike.
