Itineraries

The Limes left to right: Tyneside forts, Hadrian’s and Antonine Walls, Xanten’s re-raised town, the Saalburg reconstruction and the Danube capitals of the frontier.

The heritage spine of the Camino Francés: Pyrenean passes, pilgrim bridges, the cathedrals of Burgos and León, Gaudí at Astorga, and the granite finale at Santiago.

The Guaraní mission circuit across three borders: San Ignacio Miní, São Miguel das Missões, Trinidad and Jesús de Tavarangue — Guaraní Baroque in red sandstone.

North to south along the Wadden Sea: Denmark’s marsh park, Germany’s Halligen and Frisian flats, and the Dutch islands — one tidal landscape, three countries, six stops.

Two mercury towns, one World Heritage listing: underground at Almadén’s mining park, into Idrija’s 500-year-old galleries, and up to Gewerkenegg Castle’s museum.

Across the Ore Mountains in seven stops: Freiberg’s silver capital, Annaberg’s Gothic churches, Seiffen’s toy villages and Bohemia’s Jáchymov, where the dollar got its name.

Around the Alps through the pile-dwelling listing: Lake Constance, the Federsee, Neuchâtel and Biel, the Jura lakes, the Ljubljana Marshes and Austria’s Carinthian waters.

Eleven old-growth beech forests in one European route: Sonian at Brussels’ edge, Germany’s national parks, the Carpathian tripoint and the Balkan ridges of the UNESCO listing.

The Western Front north to south in thirteen memory sites: the Ypres salient, Vimy Ridge, the Somme memorials, Verdun’s ossuary and forts, and the mountain front in the Vosges.

From Bruges to Amiens through twelve UNESCO belfries: Flemish giants, Wallonia’s watchtowers and the rebuilt towers of the French north, in one 300-km civic route.
