Description
One of the discoveries new to me, thanks to my bike trips, is Mont Saint Aubert.
At the top, there are terraces with a beautiful view over the entire region. You can take lovely walks there and it is also worth visiting with children. There is an amusement park with a toboggan run, mini-golf, etc.
The first part of the route to Bois d'Houtaing involved regular climbs and descents, allowing us to enjoy very beautiful views. Last major climb of the first part: the not-so-steep climb in Bois d'Houtaing. After that, it was a bit less hilly. Through Leuze and Fontenoy, we continued on to the Scheldt. At junction 11, we have to cross the Scheldt via a bridge. But before doing so, we ride a little further to 8 to see the lime kilns (evidence of Tournai's industrial activity in the 19th century) of Chercq. Then, we pass the outskirts of Tournai and prepare for our last major climb.
