A path in good condition, not too busy during the week, this climb also leads to Maredsous Abbey, a very touristy place. If you really want to go all the way to the top of this hill, turn left a few hundred metres further on and there's no more tarmac.... read more

Un chemin en bon état pas trop fréquentée en semaine, cette montée mène aussi vers l'abbaye de Maredsous, endroit fort touristique, si on veut vraiment aller jusqu'au sommet de cette côte, sur la gauche encore quelques centaines de mètres après il n'y a plus d'asphalte.

Ascent from the Sosoye village in the Molignée valley. It's a nice road, not too busy (except perhaps on summer weekends, when a lot of people go to Maredsous Abbey). When you get almost to the top, you have to turn left to reach the summit, which is a cul-de-sac. Also a Cotacol

Ascension au départ du vilalge de Sosoye dans la vallée de la Molignée. C'est une belle route, pas trop fréquentée (hormis peut-être les week-ends de l'été, quand beaucoup de monde se rend à l'abbaye de Maredsous). Quand on arrive presque en haut, il faut prendre à gauche pour arriver au sommet, qui est un cul-de-sac. Egalement un Cotacol
