You will love Ghent, featuring the largest low-traffic pedestrian zone in Europe. Experiencing Ghent on a bike is a really good idea: the city loves cyclists and cyclists love the city. Ghent is a manageable size and the sights are easy to find.

Brochures showing cycling routes in and around the city can be obtained from the Visit Ghent information bureau. You are warmly welcome to come and get more information. Our Ghent city experts can’t wait to meet you.    

If you don’t have a bike, you can hire one from either of Ghent’s two railway stations (Dampoort and Gent-Sint-Pieters) or in the city centre. With the CityCard Ghent, you can even get a bike for one day for free!
