Klimmetje over een lekker slingerende weg naar boven. Het eerste korte stukje is even steil waarna het percentage naar beneden gaat en de weg om een woonblok buigt. Iets verderop gaat het weer harder omhoog. Op het eind naar links (vlak stukje) en dan naar rechts voor de laatste hoogtemeters. Redelijk asfalt.
