When Is the Best Time To Visit Belgium?
The answer to the question of what is the best month to visit Belgium depends on what you are interested in doing during your stay. Here you can see an overview of each month and its typical weather conditions.
Climate of Belgium
Belgium has a temperate maritime climate, characterized by high humidity and significant rainfall. Winters are generally mild, with temperatures hovering a few degrees above 0°C. Summers, on the other hand, are warm (about 17°C - 23°C), and hot weather is extremely rare. Typically, the further south you go, the slightly warmer it gets, so the weather in Wallonia is sunnier than in Flanders.
The Ardennes is the coldest area in the country, where in summer the mercury column does not exceed 15°C. In winter it can be cold (below 0°C), it snows, and the persistent snow cover (from 30 cm to 70 cm) makes winter sports possible.
In Belgium, rain can be expected at virtually any time of the year. Annual precipitation ranges from 700 mm to 800 mm in the lowland part of the country to 1,200 mm-1,600 mm in the Ardennes, which is the wettest region.
