Nice climb that gets quite tough in the forest and is quite long. Fine asphalt with 'Roman'cobblestones in the middle path, hence the name vsn the road: Roman Cobblestone. At the top of the climb is a work of art with benches in the shape of Roman villas's excavated in the area; from this point you have a great view over the rolling countryside!... read more

Mooie klim die in het bos flink pittig wordt en best lang doortrekt. Prima asfalt met in het middenpad nog 'Romeinse' kasseien, vandaar ook de naam vsn de weg: Romeinse Kassei. Bovenaan de klim is een kunstwerk met banken in de vorm van Romeinse villa's die in de omgeving zijn opgegraven; vanaf dit punt heb je een prachtig uitzicht over de glooiende omgeving!

Miljaar! I lose my breath every single time on the first part which makes the second part feel almost equally heavy.
