Easily accessible on foot through the meadow between the castle and the obelisk. Accessible by MTB or gravel bike from the south along a challenging singletrack (at least for a gravel bike) through a fern field in the forest, followed by a steep climb to the obelisk. The path from the north is technically less challenging but a lot muddier.

The area around the castle and museum of Folon is a hiking and mountain biking paradise.

Nice view of the castle of La Hulpe. A technical trail runs behind the obelisk
