The Kemmelberg is a hill near the village of Kemmel in the Belgian province of West Flanders. It is the highest point in the province. About 2,500 years ago, a Celtic community of the Hallstatt culture settled on the Kemmelberg and had trade relations with the Romans.

I left my car at the monument to the French soldiers. From there I could drive all the way to the top of the hill, but I thought it would be nice to walk a few hundred metres at a leisurely pace, admiring another monument along the way. At the top, I found a small hill with a concrete trigonometric pillar.
