Welcome to the Flanders Mountains

This 2.5-kilometer climb is a perfect training ground. Despite an average gradient of 5%, several sections with gradients exceeding 10% make the climb more challenging.

Antoine Demoitié was a Belgian cyclist who tragically died during the Gent-Wevelgem cycling race in 2016. He fell after 115 kilometers of racing and was then hit by a motorcycle. Demoitié was taken to the hospital in Lille in critical condition, where he later died of his injuries. A memorial stone has been erected in memory of Antoine Demoitié in Sainte-Marie-Cappel.

Be careful, it's a steep climb but it's just fun

Excellent technical single track above Grenay, with a magnificent view of the mining basin and the twin slag heaps of Loos-en-Gohelle.

The name "Catsberg" refers to a Germanic tribe, the Chatti (in Latin Chatti or Catti), who first appeared in history in the last years before the beginning of our era. In 162 and 170, the Chatti entered the history books once more as aggressors with their invasions of present-day southern Germany and Belgium. After that, the Chatti disappeared as an independent tribe. They probably merged with the Franks at the beginning of the sixth century. Source: Wikipedia
