Description by the author

Starting from the Maison du Pays des Collines, a beautiful bike ride of 22 km awaits you, ideal for lovers of unevenness.

The gentle meanders of the hills surround Ellezelles, a rural village where the glory of life is found in the small hamlets that we will cross by bike.

We start this beautiful tour with the RAVeL. This former railway line 87 provided the link between Braine-le-Comte and Tournai and crossed line 82, also called "Chemin du Mineur". Just after exit 80, the visit continues along the many nurseries of this agricultural village: the economy of the region is also linked to the sugar industry.

When we approach Saint-Sauveur, we cross a beautiful forest where the small tires are only too happy to pass. We climb endless slopes and descend regularly. Thanks to the network of junctions, cycling in the Pays des Collines is a real pleasure.
