Hidden gem! You leave from the beautiful village of Westouter. You first take the start of Sulferberg, which is slightly less interesting. After a while, however, you take a side road that runs very irregularly through meadows, groves and eventually forests. It goes up and down a bit like a roller coaster. It never gets super steep (for long).... read more

Verborgen pareltje! Je vertrekt uit het prachtig dorp Westouter. Je neemt eerst even het begin van de Sulferberg, wat iets minder interessant is. Na een tijdje neem je echter een zijweggetje dat heel onregelmatig doorheen de weiden, gaarden en uiteindelijk bossen loopt. Het gaat wat op en af zoals een roller coaster. Het wordt nooit (lang) supersteil.
