Besides the historical background that inspired the architects of this tour, even for citizen of West Flanders (especially one of the cities along the traject) it is an amazing tour that proves that the region isn't that flat as we used to think. Every village has some small local 'hills', but traveling from one hill to another is quite impressive. If you do the trip during Covid-19, take enough drinks and some snacks in your Camelback.... and just enjoy the tour!
