Having crossed the border from Slenaken, this is the first opportunity to go up to N-648/De Plank. Fairly even runner this only flattens out a bit at the end. At the top of De Plank there are several possibilities to continue the ride. Halfway up do watch out for the tractor lock.

Als je vanuit Slenaken de grens bent over gegaan is dit de eerste gelegenheid om omhoog te gaan naar de N-648/De Plank. Redelijk gelijkmatige loper dit pas op het einde wat afvlakt. Bovenop De Plank diverse mogelijkheden om rit te vervolgen. Halfverwege wel even opletten voor de tractorsluis.

Nice path between meadows and orchards. There are speed bumps in the road and there are obstacles in the middle of the road (especially when you descend the road). At the top you come between the houses of De Plank on the main road Hoogcruts - Aubel.

Leuk paadje tussen de weilanden en boomgarden door. Let op er zitten drempels in de weg en er staan obstakels midden op de weg (vooral als je de weg afdaalt). Bovenop kom je tussen de huizen van De Plank op de grote weg Hoogcruts - Aubel.

Nice small and slightly winding farm road. Car-free (there's a lock halfway) so it's very quiet, although that applies to the entire Belgian border area. Here and there nice views to the left.

Mooi klein en licht slingerend boerenweggetje. Autovrij (halverwege is er een sluis) dus heerlijk rustig, al geldt dat vrijwel voor het hele Belgische grensgebied. Her en der leuk uitzicht naar links.

Peaceful cycling over a small farm road. The climb ends between the houses in De Plank. The last part on bad tarmac if I remember correctly. I wouldn't make a detour for this climb but it's great to use as a connecting route.

Heerlijk rustig fietsen over een klein boeren weggetje. Het klimmetje eindigt tussen de huizen in De Plank. Het laatste stukje over slecht asfalt als ik me goed herinner. Ik zou geen omweg maken voor deze klim maar prima om als verbindingsroute te gebruiken.

Good climb with very little traffic. Also because there is a kind 'tractor lock' where cars's not allowed. If you come from Slenaken and drive to the border, this is the first climb in Belgium. Schilberg from Slenaken is more fun if you want to enter Belgium, or Gieveld descent if you come from the Loorberg. Nice if you have done the other two too often and want something different.

Prima klim met erg weinig verkeer. Ook omdat er een soort 'trekkersluis' ligt waar auto's niet overheen kunnen. Als je van Slenaken komt en naar de grens rijdt is dit de eerste klim in België. Schilberg vanuit Slenaken is leuker als je België in wilt, of Gieveld afdaling als je van de Loorberg komt. Wel leuk als je die andere twee al veel te vaak gedaan hebt en wat anders wilt.

Beautiful straightforward climb that is not to be underestimated. It is less beautiful than its namesake which comes from the other side on the main road, but it is a nice quiet road. Good to use as a crossing to several beautiful climbs in this region.

Mooie recht toe recht aan beklimming die niet te onderschatten is. Hij is minder fraai dan z,n naamgenoot die van de andere kant uitkomt op de provinciale weg, maar het is wel een lekker rustig weggetje. Goed te gebruiken als doorsteek naar meerdere mooie beklimmingen in deze streek.
