Nice and gentle climb through pleasant surroundings. It is very even along its entire length. From the grove slightly less steep. Very nice between the foot of La Houppe and the main road at the top as an alternative route.... read more

Mooie en rustige klim door een aangename omgeving. Het is heel gelijkmatig over de hele lengte. Vanaf het bosje iets minder steil. Heel leuk om tussen de voet van La Houppe en de grote weg bovenaan als alternatieve route te gebruiken.

Alternative to the trickier Hurdumont. Like its neighbour, the climb is steep but lacks that real outlier. Asphalt quality is decent.

Alternatief voor de lastigere Hurdumont. De klim is net als z'n buur steil maar kent niet die echte uitschieter. Asfaltkwaliteit is behoorlijk.

Nice alternative to the better known (and infamous) Hurdumont. Not as steep, but more constant, which makes it easier to classify.

Leuk alternatief voor de bekendere (en beruchte) Hurdumont. Niet zo steil, maar wel constanter waardoor die beter in te delen is.
