BELGIUM ~ Voeren Region ~

... Always a pleasure to show the beauty of my own country💚... great card from nephew and girlfriend cycling trip... it’s a peaceful, rural area typified by lush valleys, rich orchards, gently rolling hills, meandering footpaths, expansive views, fast-flowing rivers and picturesque villages.... the magnificent views and landscapes of this unique region, are not easy to be found elsewhere in Flanders... with barely 4300 inhabitants spread over six small church villages, this is the place for a relaxing holiday... it also a real walking paradise and one of the main reason why people visit the Voer region... with an extensive hiking node network... Heel erg Bedankt Ben en Loes! ♥(ˆ⌣ˆԅ) 

Voeren  is a Flemish municipality with a bilingual (Dutch and French) population, located in the Belgian province of Limburg surrounded by the Netherlands and the province of Liège. It is geographically detached from the rest of Flanders, making Voeren/Fourons an exclave of Flanders.

Voeren is a part of Limburg, however, it’s not actually physically connected to any part of the rest of Limburg. Instead, Voeren is floating about 30 kilometers away from it and so is completely isolated from the rest of Limburg. It has no common boundary with Limburg. The current municipality of Voeren was not established until 1977.

Voeren's name is derived from that of a small right-bank tributary of the Meuse, the Voer or Fouron, which flows through the municipality.
