Yes, a unique thing to have done. You have the feeling you're driving up a flight of stairs. However, the spur here is really a bit far-fetched. Does not belong to this climb at all.

Ja, toch wel eens uniek om gedaan te hebben. Je hebt idd gevoel trap op te rijden. Echter is de uitloper hier echt wel beetje vergezocht. Hoort helemaal niet bij deze klim.

Superb climb in Hoeilaart.
The hardest part with this is klinkers is special but not unpleasant.
Nice discovery

Belangrijke correctie aan mijn vorige post: de Felix Sohiestraat is inderdaad verboden richting, in beide richtingen trouwens… uitgezonderd plaatselijk verkeer. Volgens de Belgische verkeersregels mogen de fietsers deze straat rijden.

An atypical climb. A small alley only accessible for local transport. Super steep bricks in a kind of stepped pattern. Reminded me a bit of the cobblestones on the chapel wall in Geraardsbergen. Certainly worthwhile for the Flandriens among us.

Een atypische klim. Steegje enkel toegankelijk voor plaatselijk vervoer. Super stijle bakstenen in soort trapvormig patroon. Deed me wat denken aan de kasseien op de kapelmuur in Geraardsbergen. Zeker de moeite voor de Flandriens onder ons

For your information the alley with its strange cobblestones is officially forbidden. A nice variation is the Edgard Sohie street nearby, also steep but without cobblestones.

Ter informatie is het steegje met eigenaardige kasseien officieel verboden toegang. Een leuke variante is de Edgard Sohiestraat dichtbij, ook steil maar zonder kasseien.

Very narrow alley between the houses in the center of Hoeilaart. The road surface is really unique. It's bricks that have been laid in a kind of fishbone with a drop of about 1cm each time (which gives you the feeling of cycling up a flight of stairs, it's perfectly doable but fun is something else). There are so many nice climbs in the region that you can really ignore.

Zeer smal steegje tussen de huizen in het centrum van Hoeilaart. Het wegdek is echt uniek. Het zijn bakstenen die in een soort vissengraat gelegd zijn met telkens een drop van ongeveer 1cm( daardoor krijg je het gevoel een trap op te fietsen, het is perfect te doen maar leuk is iets anders) Waarschijnlijk om extra grip te geven aan de autos die hier naar beneden rijden, dan weet je wel hoe steil het is. Er zijn zoveel leuke beklimmingen in de regio dat je deze echt links kan laten.
