Oudenberg, Summit and viewing point in Geraardsbergen, Belgium.
The Oudenberg rises 110 meters above sea level, featuring a steep cobblestone road that leads cyclists and visitors to the summit of this Flemish hill.
The area gained recognition in 1068 when Geraardsbergen became one of the first settlements in Western Europe to receive official city status.
At the summit stands a neo-baroque chapel from 1724, marking the end point of a challenging climb known as the Muur van Geraardsbergen.
The climbing route extends 910 meters with gradients between 9 and 20 percent, making it a demanding test for cyclists who attempt the ascent.
Three cycling competitions - the Tour of Flanders, Three Days of De Panne, and Omloop Het Nieuwsblad - incorporate this steep hill into their routes.
