Short but crisp climb that leads through a nice environment.

Kurzer, aber knackiger Anstieg der durch eine nette Umgebung führt.

One of the five roads to leave my hometown. At the junction near the church, you turn from the Dorpsstraat onto the Grensweg and the climb actually starts immediately and that's also where the biggest gradient is. After this, it flattens out a bit until Hotel Klein Zwitserland. From the hotel to the top, give it some more push and you will automatically roll into Belgium.

Een van de vijf wegen om mijn woonplaats te verlaten. Op de splitsing bij de kerk ga je vanaf de Dorpsstraat de Grensweg op en begint de klim eigenlijk direct en daar zit ook het grootste stijgingspercentage. Hierna vlakt het tot hotel Klein Zwitserland wat af. Vanaf de het hotel tot de top dan nog even aanzetten en je rolt vanzelf België binnen.

Nice crossing in the direction of Belgium. The climb itself is a bit boring (also in terms of technical challenge) although the curve around the church is nice, but otherwise it's mainly hotels and houses. Immediately after the highest point there is a nice view into Belgium, and the road keeps on going up and down towards Teuven (from where you can go in all directions).

Leuke doorsteek richting België. De klim zelf is wat saai (ook qua technische uitdaging) al is de ronding rond de kerk wel leuk, maar verder is het vooral hotels en huizen. Direct na het hoogste punt wel fraai uitzicht België in, en de weg blijft lekker op en neer golven richting Teuven (waarvandaan je alle kanten op kunt).

I didn't know that this is a real climb because it is only a short climb in the direction of Teuven. If you don't have much power it is wise to shift to the inside blade. From Slenaken it is the connection to the Belgian side of the Loorberg (Gieveld) which is definitely recommended.

Ik wist niet dat dit een echte klim zo zijn omdat het maar een kort "hupje" is richting Teuven, Als je de weg indraait loopt het na de bocht naar rechts wel direct stijl omhoog. Als je niet veel power hebt is het wel verstandig direct op het binnenblad te schakelen. Het is vanuit Slenaken de verbinding naar de Belgische kant vd Loorberg (Gieveld) die zeker aan te bevelen is.

Hidden indeed. When you think you are going for a quiet walk around the church, you are surprised by the hill that looms in front of you. You really have to pedal hard to get to the top, but as soon as you see the electricity poles along the road you've had it. This is also a nice way to visit our southern neighbors.

Inderdaad verborgen. Waar je denkt ff een rustig rondje om de kerk te maken, wordt je toch enigszins verrast door het heuveltje wat voor je opdoemt. Je moet echt wel serieus doortrappen om boven te komen, maar zodra je de elektriciteitspalen langs de weg ziet verschijnen heb je het gehad. Ook dit is een mooie manier om onze zuiderburen te bezoeken.
