Travel easily and sustainably to Winter in Ghent using public transport. You can buy tickets through various channels: in the De Lijn stores, at the payment machines, via the De Lijn app or website or contactless on the bus or tram.
Ghent lies at the intersection of the E17 and the E40 motorways and is therefore easily accessible by car or coach. If you arrive by car, you can park in one of the P+R car parks and have an easy connection to public transportation.
Do you still need to park in the city centre? Then take into account the Low Emission Zone and the temporary ban on on-street parking.
If you have a parking card for persons with reduced mobility, you can park in the reserved parking spaces indicated on the map below (on-street parking is temporarily suspended).
