Great physical challenge and generally just a nice, traffic-free climb. However, do not be tricked by this climb's displayed profile; the average gradients over the 500 m sections do not do justice to the very irregular, stepped profile. For example, instead of 500 m at steady gradients of 10-11%, I would say that the gradients alternate between approximately 250 m of 5-7% and 250 m of 13-15%, so bring your smallest gears. Also, still best to be avoided during noon in the beginning... read more

This climb I had quite underestimated and disappointed me badly.
Very uneven and hardly any turns.
Just tapped the 16% and raking to get to the top.

Fine road surface and quiet though.

Deze klim had ik behoorlijk onderschat en viel me zwaar tegen.
Zeer onregelmatig en nauwelijks bochten.
Even de 16% aangetikt en harken om boven te komen.

Wel prima wegdek en rustig.

Also, still best to be avoided during noon in the beginning of October. The climb is sufficiently difficult without the following conditions: windless, 26-28 °C, +70% relative humidity and of course a burning sun in a clear blue sky.
