Hill 62

Hill 62 is a hill in the vicinity of Ypres. '62' indicates that the hill is 62 meters above sea level. Hill 62 or Höhe 62 fell into German hands in 1916 until Canadian troops captured the hill. The Canadians suffered heavy losses during this conquest. The monument at the top commemorates the fallen Canadian soldiers. From Hill 62 you have a beautiful view of the towers of Ypres and you immediately notice the strategic importance of a height during WWI.
