a wonderful place to study the Germans' defense against the rest of the world and also to see Prince Charles's house

Hill 60 is an authentic area from the First World War. The artificial hill, built in 1850, stood at a height of approximately 60 meters, hence the name Hill 60. Between 1914 and 1918, fierce fighting took place here between the Germans and the Allies. Starting in 1915, both sides dug tunnels under the hill in which mines were detonated. The explosion of the deep mines on June 7, 1917, created the current landscape of Hill 60. Many soldiers are still buried beneath this hill.

Easier side of Kemmelberg, but don't start too hard and leave some energy to the last part, which kicks just before the top.

superb hike....be careful if there is heavy rain in a small area which quickly becomes muddy...

This crater is very impressive.

some very beautiful works on the route

On this path on the edge of the Bos van Hellegat you dive into a beautiful green vegetation tunnel.

Just below the playground of De Kosmos you will find a building with the timeline of the history of De Kosmos. This offers a fascinating overview of the history of this iconic location. De Kosmos was originally a holiday domain and recreation area that was founded in the 1930s. The complex included a hotel, a restaurant, a party room, a music café, and an open-air swimming pool. In the 1960s to 1980s De Kosmos was a popular destination for youth movements, CM camps and forest classes. The open-air swimming pool, which was built in the 1960s, was an important feature of the domain and attracted many visitors. Unfortunately, the swimming pool was closed in 2002 due to safety issues, which eventually led to the closure of the entire complex. The building with the timeline gives visitors insight into this rich history, from its foundation to its heyday and its eventual closure. It is a great way to keep the memories of this special place alive.
