Philosophe British Cemetery is located in Mazingarbe and is managed by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC). The cemetery contains the graves of 1,996 Commonwealth soldiers who died during the First World War, of whom 277 are unidentified. The cemetery was established in August 1915 and was used by various divisions until October 1918.

A poignant story from Philosophe British Cemetery concerns Private Reginald Albert Twyford of the East Surrey Regiment. He died on 8 August 1916, at the young age of 15. His gravestone bears the inscription: "No King Or Saint Hath Tomb So Proud As He Whose Flag Becomes His Shroud," reflecting the deep honour and respect accorded even to the youngest soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice.

The Nécropole nationale de Notre-Dame-de-Lorette is one of the largest and most impressive military cemeteries in France. Situated on a hill in Ablain-Saint-Nazaire, this cemetery contains the graves of more than 42,000 soldiers who died during the First World War. The cemetery was inaugurated in 1925 and includes a basilica, a tower-lantern and a museum.

Beware, beginners without an electric bike... big climbs... it's a roller coaster!!! Otherwise, the route to Olhain is fantastic!!!

The church dedicated to the Mother of God under the title "Notre-Dame de Lorette" rises in brilliant white and is visible from far away. But the brilliant impression is deceptive, at the latest when the visitor to the site realizes that they are in a huge military cemetery. Around 20,000 individual graves and a further 23,000 victims of war and tyranny buried in ossuaries are deeply disturbing.

the positive elevation gain is rather steep but the climb leads to a good track.
