Only did the second part, but really want to share how beautiful it is. This is nature at its best, and when you see how fast you ride here in the top 10 of Strava segments you realise how few people come here. Pure pleasure, I would come back for that alone! At the top of Aux Goffes, when you dive right down, you are treated to a fantastic view of the Condroz/Famenne. The road surface crumbles a little, but more than three quarters of it is in excellent condition for whizzing down to Tellin! Th... read more

Only did the second part, but really want to share how beautiful it is. This is nature at its best, and when you see how fast you ride here in the top 10 of Strava segments you realise how few people come here. Pure pleasure, I would come back for that alone! At the top of Aux Goffes, when you dive right down, you are treated to a fantastic view of the Condroz/Famenne. The road surface crumbles a little, but more than three quarters of it is in excellent condition for whizzing down to Tellin! There, it is advisable to go up Les Alwins again, especially if you like steep climbs in this beautiful landscape. ENJOY!

Heb alleen het tweede stuk gedaan, maar wil eigenlijk echt wel delen hoe mooi deze is. Dit is de natuur op zijn best, en als je ziet hoe snel je hier in de top-10 van Strava-segmentjes rijdt besef je hoe weinig volk hier komt. PUUR genieten, alleen voor zou ik al terugkomen! Als je boven aan Aux Goffes rechts naar beneden duikt heb wordt je getrakteerd op een fantastisch uitzicht op de Condroz/Famenne. Het wegdek verbrokkelt eventjes, maar meer dan driekwart ligt er uitstekend bij om naar beneden te zoeven tot in Tellin! Daar is het aan te raden om opnieuw naar boven Les Alwins op te knallen, zeker als je bovenop dit prachtige landschap van steile klimmetjes houdt. GENIETEN !!
