Smedenpoort (Blacksmiths' Gate)

Highlight • Historical Site

If you ever cycle from Sint-Andries through the Smedenpoort to the centre of Bruges, look back as you leave the gate. A green skull is grinning at you.

Bruges–Ostend Canal

Highlight • River

This canal path is not boring. It is not only dead straight but also meanders in small curves.
Trees to the right and left give this canal a park-like character.
