West-Flanders - Heuvelland

WW1 Kemmel (24 km)

Introduction

This WW1 Cycling Route has been created by the Rotary For You.
During the spring offensive, the French were driven away from this area by a tremendously dominant German military and Poperinge came in reach of the German artillery. Because of a lack of supply lines which couldn’t keep up with the advancing troops, the offensive died away close to Loker and the Germans have never been able to continue the offensive.
