Very nice climb on the main road from Blieberg/Plombières to Gemmich. The climb starts as you leave the built-up area. Throughout the climb, the gradients fluctuate without getting really tricky.

Very nice climb on a quiet through road with good asphalt. The road winds up beautifully from the valley of the river Geul (Gueule), first through a forest and then between some houses and fields. There are several nice views on the surroundings.
Also great to descend by the way.
