As the other review says, not recommended. Incredibly busy, road surface on the sides is dull and the buildings don't make it any prettier. Plenty of nicer and quieter alternatives.
Zoals de andere beoordeling al zegt, geen aanrader. Ontzettend druk, wegdek aan de zijkanten is bagger en de bebouwing maakt het niet fraaier. Genoeg mooiere en rustigere alternatieven.
Just don't do this climb - and fortunately there are excellent alternatives - because it is, in a word, terrible. Traffic (including truck traffic) is a madhouse and the tarmac is particularly bad at the edges. Fortunately, I had the bike with thick anti-puncture tyres so they survived because it was riding large parts in the gutter and stopping regularly to pass the traffic jam behind you (rather than trying to overtake at impossible times).
Physically, by the way, the climb is challenging because you start cycling harder and harder to leave it behind as quickly as possible.... and then comes the long punchy middle section. That does wear you down.
Gewoon niet doen deze klim - en gelukkig zijn er uitstekende alternatieven - want deze is in één woord verschrikkelijk. Het verkeer (ook vrachtverkeer) is een gekkenhuis en het asfalt is aan de randen bijzonder slecht. Gelukkig had ik de fiets met dikke antilekbanden dus die hebben het overleefd want het was grote delen in de goot rijden en regelmatig stoppen om de file achter je voorbij te laten (liever dat dan dat ze proberen in te halen op onmogelijke momenten).
Fysiek is de klim overigens wel een uitdaging want je gaat steeds harder fietsen om deze zo snel mogelijk achter je te laten... en dan komt het lange pittige middengedeelte. Dat sloopt je wel.
