    Hiking

    Chapel made of ferruginous sandstone, highlighting the geological formation of the Flanders Mountains.
    The Chapel of Our Lady of La Salette was blessed on August 27, 1876. This chapel, in an underground cave, was built of ferruginous stone extracted from the sand pits of Mont-Noir. At the summit, there is a Calvary that can be seen from afar. The site is picturesque, and the cave is not lacking in originality. It was built by Father Pouwels, the parish priest.
