The climb starts at the Lesse. After that, the slope is not too steep but it does go up for a long time, even if it is more of a false flat at the end. The road is nice and wide, but sometimes a little busy in summer.... read more

Le départ de cette ascension se fait au niveau de la Lesse. Ensuite, la pente n'est pas trop raide mais ça monte longtemps, même si ça tient plus du faux plat sur la fin. Belle route bien large, parfois un peu fréquentée en été.

Climb starts after the bridge over the Lesse via a wide road that climbs via 2 long hairpins up the river flank to Hulsonniaux.
After which the route continues for a while on long straight parts on false flat land until the highest plateau point.
In the beginning you have a view on the many kayaks going down the river below you. This descent of the Lesse from Houyet over Gendron to Anseremme is the most popular sporting activity in the region.

Klim start na brug over de Lesse via brede weg die via 2 lange haarspeldbochten de rivierflank opklimt tot Hulsonniaux.
Waarna de route tot het hoogste plateaupunt een tijdje op lange rechte stukken vals plat verdergaat.
In de aanvangsfase heb je in de zomer zicht op de vele kajaks die beneden jou de rivier afvaren. Deze afvaart van de Lesse van Houyet over Gendron tot Anseremme is de populairste sportieve activiteit van de regio.
