This is a gruelling and tough little climb. The first 4.5 kilometres will completely drain you, as the gradient never drops below 10 per cent. Add to that a thick layer of fresh grit, and you’ve got a painful ascent. Because of the large amount of grit they’ve scattered on the road, I’d skip this climb for a few more months.

This is a gruelling and tough little climb. The first 4.5 kilometres will completely drain you, as the gradient never drops below 10 per cent. Add to that a thick layer of fresh grit, and you’ve got a painful ascent. Because of the large amount of grit they’ve scattered on the road, I’d skip this climb for a few more months. At times, you’re cycling through centimetres of gravel. At a certain point, the climb emerges from the woods and then you’re almost there. At the top, you’re rewarded with a breathtaking, sweeping view down into the valley. That view alone makes the climb worthwhile.

Dit is een naar en zwaar klimmetje. De eerste 4,5 kilometer trekken je helemaal leeg omdat het niet onder de 10% komt. Neem daarbij een dikke laag verse grit, dat zorgt voor een pijnlijke opgang. Vanwege de grote hoeveelheid grit die ze op de weg hebben gegooid zou ik deze klim nog een paar maanden overslaan. Soms rij je door centimeters diepe steentjes. De klim komt op een gegeven moment uit het bos en dan ben je er bijna. Op de top heb je een adembenemend weids uitzicht de vallei in. Alleen voor dat uitzicht wil je al omhoog.
