    This hill, also known as "Montagne de Ranzinelle", is located on the left slope of the Molignée valley, downstream from Maredsous Abbey. Overlooking the very picturesque village of Sosoye, this hillside is one of the jewels of our natural heritage. The vegetation, absolutely remarkable, includes associations of limestone escarpments with stonecrops (Sedum spp.) and ciliated melicum (Melica ciliata), xeric lawns with globular (Globularia bisnagarica) and libanotis (Seseli libanotis), mesophilic lawns with erect brome (Bromus erectus) and pinnate brachypodium (Brachypodium pinatum) very rich in orchids, thermophilic hems with tame-venom (Vincetoxicum hirundinaria), a calcicole oak grove as well as a strip of gully maple grove with centipede (Asplenium scolopendrium). The botanical interest is underlined by the presence of many rare plants in Belgium. The entomofauna is also exceptionally diverse (lepidoptera, orthoptera and hymenoptera in particular).

      If walking were always in such a location, you would never stop walking...
