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.

Mont des Cats

Highlight • Viewpoint

2.5 kilometers and a gradient of up to 18 percent, that's what cyclists expect on the Catsberg. Once at the top you will find the abbey of the same name in which Trappist beer is brewed.
