Australian Remembrance Trail along the Western Front

Overview

The Australian Remembrance Trail along the Western Front is an Australian Government initiative to establish, in cooperation with French and Belgian authorities, a commemorative trail highlighting significant sites along the Western Front that allow visitors to interpret the Australian experience of war.

The Australian Remembrance Trail links the most significant sites along the 200km trail from Ieper (Ypres) on the Channel coast in Belgium to Bellenglise in northern France. It includes battlefields, cemeteries, memorials and museums – all sharing their own experiences of the First World War.

Visiting these sites, where 75 percent of Australia’s First World War fallen now rest, is an emotional and rewarding experience.
