The Diglette path is a hill that starts very close to the Fourneau Saint-Michel. When you are on the main road from Nassogne to Saint-Hubert, you have to turn left to a small road, just before arriving at Fourneau Saint-Michel. When I made this ascent, I had to raise the barrier because it is also a hunters' road. This climb is particularly long but never offers big gradients. It is recommended for those who like peace and quiet, as you will meet absolutely no one and you will be alone in the middle of a beautiful forest.

Le chemin de la Diglette est une côte qui commence très proche du Fourneau Saint-Michel. Lorsqu'on est sur la nationale qui va de Nassogne à Saint-Hubert, il faut prendre à gauche vers une petite route, juste avant d'arriver au Fourneau Saint-Michel. Quand j'ai effectué cette ascencion, j'ai dû relevé la barrière car c'est aussi une route pour chasseurs. Cette côte est particulièrement longue mais n'offre jamais de gros pourcentages. A recommender pour les amateurs de calme car on y croise absolument personne et on se retrouve seul au milieu d'une belle forêt.
