I drove around the old circuit a few years ago. It is absolutely awe-inspiring. The run down from Les Combes to Stavelot brings me out in a sweat, just thinking about it.
The icing on the cake for us was to drive the "wrong way" up towards Les Combes, vaguely looking for things using an ordinary road atlas. Suddenly we came across a fence across the road and there were cars racing 100 yards on the other side. We parked up, went through an open gate and spent the day watching a classic sports car race.
