To get to the Zwarteberg, make a short detour over the Belgian-French border. Although the mountain is beyond the border, it has been part of the Gent-Wevelgem route several times. The name Zwarteberg, Mont Noir or Black Mountain comes from the black pine forests that surround it.

The hill is located on the French-Belgian border, the top at 152 meters. On the French side, the slope is called Mont Noir, after the hamlet of the same name …

This slope is located on the border between Belgium and France. Very touristy and can therefore be busy. Beautiful views of the area.
