Direct access to our services : Geography, Climate and Population Geography : Belgium is situated between The Netherlands to the north, Germany to the east, France to the southwest, Luxembourg to the south and the North Sea to the northwest. It is a small country of some 30.518 km 2 that can be crossed in three or four hours. Belgium can be divided into three areas: a) Lower Belgium (up to 100 m): It begins to the west with a stretch of sea, 65 km long . Behind the coastline there are polders, a flat and very fertile area which in former times was regularly flooded by the sea, but has now been protected against the strong tides by dikes. The Flemish plains, a sandy area which now and then becomes hilly, lies between the western polders, the Leie and the Scheldt. To the east lies the Stet, a region with poor soil, moors, lakes and swamps. b) Central Belgium ( 100 - 200 m): It lies beyond the Flemish plains and the Kempen, gently rising to the valleys of the Sambre and the Meuse. This low plateau is the most fertile area of Belgium. Part of the heavily urbanized Brabant region is covered by the "Forêt de Soignes".
