After a relaxed start on an excellent link road through pleasant surroundings, you turn left into a smaller road in Winamplanche. The tarmac here is less but still very doable. The percentages go up considerably and stay that way for such a long time that it really does feel tough because curve after curve (and there are a lot of bends) the road keeps climbing. Beautiful scenery with nice views at times. After a small descent, the final climb through Creppe is just a small bump.

Na een relaxed begin over een uitstekende verbindingsweg door een aangename omgeving ga je in Winamplanche linksaf een kleinere weg in. Het asfalt is hier wel minder maar zeker nog prima te doen. De percentages gaan flink omhoog en dat blijft dusdanig lang zo dat het echt wel zwaar aanvoelt want bocht na bocht (en er zijn veel bochten) blijft de weg flink doorstijgen. Mooie omgeving met soms fraaie uitzichten. Na een kleine afdaling is de eindklim door Creppe nog maar een kleine bult.

Great climb, nice and gentle but irregular. You can also get to the Rosier nicely via this one. Landscape is somewhat agricultural.

Prima beklimming, lekker rustig maar wel onregelmatig. Via deze kun je ook mooi naar de Rosier. Landschap is wat agrarisch.

I rode it from Winamplanche and was pleasantly surprised by this beautiful thing ! Chasing the roar of the passing motorcycles, I tried to find a comfortable pace to ride with ease to the top of this Wall of Creppe, as many cycling fanatics dare to call it. It is a real pleasure to stand on the pedals here in the middle of nature and to search for the border between progress and collapse. The first part (from the Winamplanche cemetery until it turns left uphill) is still open in the landscape after which you really get going (here after 2.6km) and are increasingly surrounded by trees. Once past this section and out of the forest, there is a short descent where you can pick up some speed to comfortably survive the last bump to the centre.

Ik reed hem vanuit Winamplanche en was aangenaam verrast door dit mooie ding ! Het gebrul van de voorbijrazende moteren najagend zocht ik een comfortabel tempo om met souplesse naar de top de rijden van deze Muur van Creppe zoals menig wielerfanaat hem ook wel eens durft te noemen. Het is echt genieten om hier tenmidden de natuur op de trappers te gaan staan en de grens tussen vooruitgaan en ineenstorten op te zoeken. Het eerste stuk (dus vanaf het kerkhof van Winamplanche tot het links omhoog opdraait) ligt nog open in het landschap waarna je dus (hier na 2.6km) echt aan begint en steeds meer omringd wordt door bomen. Eens dat stuk voorbij en uit het bos volgt nog een kort stukje afdaling waar je wat snelheid kan nemen om comfortabel de laatste bult tot in het centrum te overleven.
