E 40 - The longest European road
The European Route 40 (E 40) stretches east-west through Central and Eastern Europe as well as Central Asia. It begins in Calais on the English Channel (France) and ends in Ridder (Kazakhstan). With a length of more than 8.000 kilometers (4,300 nautical miles), the E 40 is the longest European route and one of the longest in the world. It runs along the VIA REGIA corridor through Belgium via Bruges, Ghent, Brussels, Liège and Eupen to Germany. In Thuringia, it touches the medieval VIA REGIA towns of Eisenach, Gotha and Erfurt, then leaves the route of the medieval VIA REGIA and runs via Jena, Dresden and Bautzen to the Polish border. It continues through Poland, through Ukraine, east of Kiev and on through Russia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan to Ridder near the Chinese border. The route offers a fascinating mix of European cities, Eastern European landscapes and Central Asian expanses.
