Always a fan of a good RAVEL, though I'm not quite sure if you should classify this under ascent. It goes up indeed but it's nothing more than a viaduct. A handy way to get to Hockai or Francorchamps car-free, through beautiful surroundings and at a friendly rate, though.... read more

Altijd fan van een goede RAVEL, al weet ik niet helemaal of je dit onder beklimming moet scharen. Het gaat omhoog inderdaad maar het is niet meer dan een viaduct. Wel een handige manier om autovrij, door een mooie omgeving en met een vriendelijk percentage in Hockai of Francorchamps te komen.
