As mentioned, the first stretch runs nicely and only starts from Menil-favay onwards. In the wonderfully quiet forest, and on a very decent road, I still saw 14-15% passing on the counter for quite a while. Definitely worth it!

Zoals gezegd, loopt het eerste stuk lekker door en begint het pas vanaf Menil-favay. In het heerlijk rustige bos, en op een zeer behoorelijke weg, zag ik toch nog best een tijdje 14-15% op de teller voorbijkomen. Zeker de moeite waard!

I was surprised to find an asphalt road, in such a quiet and big forest - usually you need a gravel bike or MTB to access the forests. Therefore, if by road bike, this climb is highly recommended

Nice climb but listed on Strava as two separate segments. Fairly good tarmac and of course enjoying the surroundings!

Mooie klim maar staat op Strava vermeld als twee aparte segmenten. Redelijk goed asfalt en natuurlijk genieten van de omgeving!

The climb really starts in Menil-Favay, where the road immediately rises steeply. The road is nicely tarmacked and leads steeply into the forest. In the forest, the climb flattens out, but then try to change gears again. The road surface of the descent to Grimbiemont is less good.

De klim begint pas echt in Menil-Favay, waar de weg meteen stijl omhoog loopt. De weg is mooi geasfalteerd en loopt stijl door naar het bos. In het bos vlakt de klim af, maar probeer dan maar nog eens bij te schakelen. Wegdek van de afdaling naar Grimbiemont is minder goed.
