I really like this climb. Last time I did it it was pouring rain and that made it even more difficult on the cobbles.
Try to stay away from the asphalt if your legs allow it :)

Er zijn inderdaad af en toe asfaltstrookjes aan de zijkant en een stukje in het midden. Maar als je iemand voorbijgaat kom je onverbiddelijk op de kasseien terecht en super liggen die er hier niet bij. best lastig, zeker bij veel zon want geen verkoeling. Best kan je tot bovenaan rijden en stukje terugkeren naar de kokkerelestraat. Leuker als de op grote baan verder te moeten rijden.

Not to underestimate! though you have some asphalt lanes on the side, the gradiant and the surprising lenght of it wakes this really hard

One of the only bergs with slope and pavers for most of its length. Wide road with the possibility to ride on the asphalt treads on both sides of the road. Difficulty between the Oude Kruisberg and the Oude Kwaremont.

L'un des seuls bergs avec de la pente et des pavés sur pratiquement toute la longueur. Route large avec possibilité de rouler sur les bandes de roulement en asphalte de chaque côté de la route. Difficulté entre le Oude Kruisberg et le Oude Kwaremont.

It's very strange that there is a bit of asphalt between the cobblestones, but it does give you a chance to rest your body (and your bike). The spur after that is, just like the first part, in a bad shape and feels heavier than the percentages suggest.

Heel vreemd dat hier even een stukje asfalt tussen de kasseistroken ligt, maar dat zorgt er wel voor dat je even je lichaam (en fiets) kan laten rusten. De uitloper daarna ligt er net zoals het eerste stuk wat slecht bij en voelt dus zwaarder aan dan de percentages doen blijken.

I did this climb at the end of the RVV red loop.
I wanted to climb the slope on the cobblestones only and leave the asphalt layers aside.
But the climb is so tough that I couldn't resist to ride on the asphalt layers.
A climb that also lasts. The cobblestones weren't optimal either, sometimes they were missing.

Heb deze klim gedaan op het einde van de RVV-rode lus.
Ik wou de helling beklimmen enkel op de kasseistroken en de geasfalteerde lagen links laten liggen.
De klim is toch zo zwaar dat ik er niet aan heb kunnen weerstaan om op de geasfalteerde lagen te rijden.
Een klim die ook blijft duren. Kasseistrook lag er ook niet optimaal bij, soms ontbraken er kasseien.

This climb has become a little less difficult thanks to the asphalt strips on the sides. If you can resist the temptation and stay on the cobblestones, this is quite a challenging climb.

Deze klim is wat minder zwaar geworden dankzij de asfaltstroken aan de zijkanten. Als je aan de verleiding kan weerstaan en je blijft op de kasseien, dan is dit best een uitdagende helling.
