Rent a Car Belgium - Geography Belgium
With a tiny coastline on the North Sea, Belgium occupies a small blob of land less than 100kms across, and squeezed between the Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg and France. It is quite densely populated and mostly urban, but does feature agricultural pasture and a few natural, undeveloped, areas. These are found mostly in the south in the Ardennes region, including the Hautes Fagnes National Park on its eastern border. The north is flat, the south dominated by the picturesque Ardennes and the 65km North Sea coastline monopolised by resorts, except for a few patches of windswept dunes.
The North is characterized by networks of canals. There is limited wildlife to be found, except in the national park.
Brussels is centrally located, while Antwerp is a busy port and Ostend and Zeebrugge are busy coastal towns. The southwest province of Wallonia has its own distinct culture.
