One of the longest climbs in the Namur region starts by cycling across the Meuse via the pretty arched bridge in Hastière.
Firmly climbing up the valley slope on busy road, which you can leave just to the right if you choose to take the old route.
At the top of the wide plateau, the climbing is over but it continues for several more kilometres up and down with lots of false flat on long straight/slightly turning road with the wind as a game breaker.
There are wind turbines along the route for a reason.
Via two turns past the church of Mesnil St. Blaise (provisioning) you reach the highest point on leaving this only village, at the level of the little school.
Long busy climb for those who want to brave the wind!
Eén van de langste beklimmingen in de regio Namen start met het over fietsen van de Maas via de mooie boogbrug in Hastière.
Stevig klimmend de dalflank omhoog op drukke weg, die je even rechts kan verlaten als je kiest om de oude route te nemen.
Boven op het weidse plateau zit het klimwerk erop maar gaat het nog enkele kilometers op en af verder met veel vals plat op lange rechte/licht draaiende weg met de wind als spelbreker.
Er staan niet voor niks windenergiemolens langs de route.
Via twee bochten langs de kerk van Mesnil St. Blaise (bevoorrading) bereik je bij het verlaten van dit enige dorp, ter hoogte van het schooltje, het hoogste punt.
Lange drukke klim voor wie de wind wil trotseren!
Long tempo climb that climbs evenly until just before the first right turn to Blainmont, where a white line 'GPM' has been drawn. After that, the climb keeps going up and down until Mesnil St Blaise. Only the first km you cycle through the forest, after that the wind is usually at a disadvantage here....
Lange tempoklim die gelijkmatig klimt tot net voor de eerste afslag rechts naar Blainmont, waar een witte lijn 'GPM' is getrokken. Daarna blijft de klim op en neer gaan tot Mesnil St Blaise. Enkel de eerste km fiets je door het bos, daarna staat de wind hier meestal in het nadeel...
