Famed for its multiple natural mineral springs, the town is home to Europe s original health resort it s in the name! First Grand Prix 1950 Number of Laps 44 Circuit Length 7.004km A trip to Spa is not complete without visiting its hot springs and mineral waters, the perfect antidote to a weekend of action-packed racing. A neoclassic marvel for incoming tourists is the Casino de Spa. For those who fancy a flutter, this is still a very much functioning casino, so bring your passport (and some money!). For racing fans, the Musee de Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, located a mere six miles away from the track at Stavelot Abbey, is packed full of racing vehicles, information on the history of the track, as well as an original taxi from A trip to Spa and Belgium without sampling some of its unique delicacies like a cone of frites and waffles frosted with icing sugar and whipped cream is a trip wasted. In the heart of Spa you will find L Art de Vivre, widely regarded as the best restaurant in Spa. Try it. Attend the 2018 Belgian Grand Prix at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps with F1 Experiences, Formula 1 s Official Ticket & Travel Program, with access including driver meet-and-greets, Paddock Club Party, Exclusive Pit Lane Walks and more! 2
