Long climb in 3 steps. The start of the first step is firm, but soon it levels off. On top of step 1 you can see the wavy D240 in the distance going up. A fairly long descent leads to the second step which brings you just a bit higher. This time, a very short descent follows and after you've turned onto a narrow country road, you can say that the "real"climb of the côte de Quéhen starts. This 3rd step is the shortest, but also clearly the steepest.
Lange beklimming in 3 treden. De aanzet van de eerste trede is stevig, maar vlakt al snel wat af. Boven op trede 1 zie je de golvende D240 in de verte verder omhoog gaan. Een redelijk lange afdaling leidt tot de 2de trede die je net weer iets hoger brengt. Ditmaal volgt een zeer korte afdaling en nadat je bent afgeslagen naar een smalle landweg kan je zeggen dat de "echte" klim van de côte de Quéhen begint. Deze 3de trede is de korste, maar ook duidelijk de steilste.
