Belgium has three main physiographic regions namely, a low lying coastal plain, a gently rolling, slightly elevated central plateau and the Ardennes Highlands, a densely wooded plateau which extends across southern Belgium and into northeastern France. Botrange - the highest peak in Belgium at an elevation of 2,277 ft - is located here. The Schelde is the principal waterway in Belgium and the cities Antwerp, Brussels and Ghent are located on its banks.
The generally level terrain in Belarus is disrupted by a series of highlands that run from northeast to southwest, with its share of forests, lakes and marshes. The country’s highest point Mount Dzyarzhynskaya (1135 ft) is located in an upland area just southwest of Minsk. The Dnepr is the largest river in Belarus, flowing through almost the entire length of the country. The Daugava, Nyoman and the Bug are the important rivers in this country. Belarus has thousands of lakes, the largest of which is Lake Narach in the northwest.
A predominantly mountainous country with an average altitude of about 3000ft, Austria forms a part of the eastern division of the Alps. The major mountain ranges of Austria run in an eastern-western direction and are separated by broad valleys. The Danube is the main river that flows through Austria, besides its Austrian tributaries and the southern rivers Mur and Mures.
