Beautiful route in summer and panoramic view and quite a bit of elevation gain

Very mobile with magnificent view of the gorial pond

Nice climb, be careful though, recently due to internal combustion, gases and smoke escape from time to time.

Wide view! In the distance you can see the tower of Saint-Amand-les-Eaux.

The Goriaux pond (former pig pond as its dialect name indicates) is a mining subsidence pond in the North, in France, and a national biological reserve since 1982. A very significant mining subsidence created three ponds in 1916, which ended up joining around 1930 to form a single pond, located at the foot of slag heap no. 171, Mare à Goriaux, partly recolonized by vegetation. The site of the body of water and the slag heap of the pond in Goriaux is part of the Raismes-Saint-Amand-Wallers national forest.

Very nice layout around the pond, which is an ornithological reserve. The slag heap is on the other side. Different promontory which allows to have an unobstructed view of the region.

Nice spot, possibility to land, soak your feet in the water. Not far from the Arenberg gap. Accessible slag heap along the Mate in Goriaux which gives a view from above. Be careful, very narrow and sloping path if you want to go along the pond on the slag side.

fairly steep climb but not too high (40m D +)
