The summit of the slope lies between the Rodeberg and the Vidaigneberg. Near the summit stands the Lijstermolen (Listers Mill). A chairlift runs between the Baneberg and the Vidaigneberg, gliding over the saddle valley between the two "mountains" and the vineyards of the Entre-Deux-Monts, offering panoramic views of northern France and the Belgian coastal plain. The summit is 140 meters high. The name comes from the Bane family, who owned the mountain in the 13th and 14th centuries. The slope is also sometimes called Gildestraat (Gilde Street). https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baneberg

The Irish Peace Tower is the central monument in the Irish Peace Park in Mesen, West Flanders. The park and the tower were built in memory of the Irish soldiers who were killed, wounded or missing in action during the First World War. The tower, which has a height of 30.5 metres, is designed according to the traditional model of an Irish round tower. Since September 2023, the park has been on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

An interesting anecdote concerns the explosion of one of the mines on 17 July 1955 by lightning. This mine had not been detonated during the war and was still underground. The explosion created a new crater and reminded the local population of the lasting impact of the war.

The Spanbroekmolen crater, also known as the Pool of Peace, is an impressive mine crater in Wijtschate. This crater was formed on June 7, 1917, during the Second Battle of Messines, when British troops detonated 19 underground mines. The explosion created a crater 27 meters deep and 129 meters in diameter. After nearly 100 years of erosion, the crater is now a peaceful pool 12 meters deep and 76 meters in diameter.

This land art installation on the flank of the Scherpenberg refers to the cocoons from which butterflies grow to then discover the vast world. From this spot (with duo lounger, picnic table for 20 people, ...) you have a magnificent view of the Yper Salient (the height around Ypres.) and towards France.

Take the time to get off your bike and read the inscriptions on the stones. They tell their own tale.

Behind the small Locre No. 10 Cemetery there is an oak tree in the middle of a field. The men in the cemetery died during the Great War of 1914-1918, one of the last victims of that same war fell 65 years later. A farmer ripped apart a bomb with the tail of his plow and flew into the air. The oak tree is planted at the site of the tragedy. www.derondevanbelgie.nl
