CIMETIÈRE WOODS Belgique
Le CIMETIÈRE WOODS est situé à 4 kilomètres à l'est du centre-ville d'Ypres sur la Verbrandemolenstraat, une route se joignant à la Komenseweg qui relie Ypres à Komen (N336).
Du centre-ville d'Ypres on rejoint la Komenseweg via la Rijselsestraat, en passant par la porte de Lille (Rijselpoort) et en traversant la route périphérique d'Ypres, en direction d'Armentières et de Lille. La route prend alors le nom de Rijselseweg. Un kilomètre plus loin sur la Rijselseweg se trouve le virage à gauche sur la Komenseweg.
Deux kilomètres et demi plus loin sur la Komenseweg, un virage à droite donne sur la Vaartstraat. Neuf cent mètres plus loin sur la Vaartstraat, un virage à gauche mène à la Verbrandemolenstraat. Le CIMETIÈRE WOODS se trouve 400 mètres plus loin sur la Verbrandemolenstraat, à faible distance de la route. Les visiteurs doivent noter qu'un sentier herbeux non-carrossable de 100 mètres donne accès au cimetière.
