View from Terril Saint-Charles Sud (Bois du Cazier)

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Saint-Charles Sud slag heap, entirely wooded, has been converted into a place of discovery and relaxation. It adjoins the Bois du Cazier site, where the biggest mining disaster in the history of Belgium took place on the morning of August 8, 1956. The summit hosts a panoramic observatory on the region, at nearly 250 meters above sea level. A path has been laid out to facilitate the ascent of the slag heap.

Technical Steep Descent

Highlight • Trail

Great downhill and uphill mountain biking

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Witch's Descent is one of the most beautiful descents in the region. It is relatively non-technical for those accustomed to mountain biking. It is still playful with its slight turns and variations in slope. For the region, it is relatively long.

Almost at the end of the descent, the daredevils can risk a drop on the left side of the single track down a rock.

Magnificent track of the Bourg-Bikers club made very difficult by the weather conditions of the last few days...initially left for the 40km, during the split, my legs advised me to go for the 30...lots of wood and therefore a lot of mud which gives a very poor performance and the impression of being permanently uphill (the GPS even paused sometimes …
