Iconic climb of the Kemmel. Steep and on a perfectly passable cobblestone road that becomes increasingly steeper towards the end.

Mont Noir (West)

Highlight • Summit

To get to the Zwarteberg, make a short detour over the Belgian-French border. Although the mountain is beyond the border, it has been part of the Gent-Wevelgem route several times. The name Zwarteberg, Mont Noir or Black Mountain comes from the black pine forests that surround it.

De Maginottine Bunker

Terrible fighting raged along the Franco-Belgian border during the First World War, the traces of which can still be seen in many places today. Not only the remains of bunkers, but also military cemeteries and monuments characterize the region.

Le Trou Aid Post Cemetery

Highlight • Other

Le Trou Aid Post Cemetery was established in October 1914 by British soldiers of the 19th Infantry Brigade during the First Battle of Ypres.

The cemetery initially contained 123 graves, but was expanded after the war. It now contains over 350 graves, of which over 200 are unknown. The cemetery commemorates soldiers who died in a number of battles, including Le Maisnil (October 1914), Aubers Ridge (May 1915), Loos (September–October 1915), and Fromelles (July 1916).

A special feature of the cemetery is its rural setting, surrounded by a narrow moat and sheltered by a grove of weeping willows. Visitors reach the cemetery via a footbridge and enter through a delicate cottage-style gate.

VC Corner Cemetery and Memorial

Highlight • Monument

This British cemetery and memorial were built in memory of the Australian soldiers who died during the Battle of Fromelles on 19-20 July 1916. There are 410 Australian soldiers buried here, none of whom have been identified. Although the graves are individual, they are not marked with individual headstones, but the names of some 1,200 missing are recorded on the Memorial, a memorial wall at the rear of the cemetery. Two large concrete crosses have been placed on the grassed area. In front of the memorial wall is the Cross of Sacrifice.
