The Katsberg (Mont des Cats) is a witness hill in the West Flemish Heuvelland, in French Flanders, in the area of the municipality of Godewaarsvelde. The highest point is 164 meters above sea level.

The Abbey is located on the Katsberg. Near the abbey is also the Chapelle de la Passion. There is also a 200 meter high television mast. The name comes from the Germanic tribe of the Chattians.

Within the walls of the abbey, Marshal Ferdinand Foch sought peace and reflection during the First World War.

The Katsberg is part of the so-called central ridge in the Heuvelland, which also consists of the Watenberg, Kasselberg, Wouwenberg, Boeschepeberg, Kokereelberg, Zwarteberg, Vidaigneberg, Baneberg, Rodeberg, Sulferberg, Goeberg, Scherpenberg, Monteberg, Kemmelberg and Letteberg.

South of this ridge is the Leie catchment area, and north of this ridge is the Yser catchment area.
