The starting point is (50.5253, 5.5234), where you can leave you car on the edge of the road, called Rue Fine Pierre ("Thin Stone Road").
Then, walk uphill for 100 m on well marked path : you won't be the first to visit the Fine Pierre, several old postcards attest of its popularity.
I didn't measure the exact coordinates of the spot, but you cannot possibly miss it.
About 500 m to the North, there is also a Rue Grosse Pierre ("Big/Thick Stone Road), for which I have no data.
