A climb where the tarmac dead ends (the road does continue as a gravel road but that is quite "challenging") so at the end you have to descend via the same road again. Still, definitely fun to catch if you drive by or stay in the area because really challenging. I had hoped for some more views (there are certainly some at the top, by the way) but the steepest part of the climb is through a hollow road.... although then you won't be looking around much there anyway.
From the town centre, it goes up quite a bit from the bridge but after turning right and then left (cul-de-sac) it gets steep - and stays that way for a long time. Between the houses and along the cemetery it is already a steep climb but after keeping to the left you enter the hollow road and it gets really tough. Then it flattens out and there is a nice rural stretch to where the asphalt ends. On the way back, there are also nice views here. Fair to good tarmac across the board.

Een klim waar het asfalt doodloopt (de weg gaat wel verder als gravelweg maar die is nogal "uitdagend") dus op het eind moet je via dezelfde weg weer afdalen. Toch zeker leuk om mee te pakken als je langsrijdt of in de omgeving verblijft want echt uitdagend. Ik had gehoopt op wat meer uitzicht (dat is er bovenin overigens zeker) maar het steilste deel van de klim loopt door een holle weg... alhoewel je dan daar toch niet veel om je heen zal kijken.
Vanuit het centrum gaat het vanaf de brug al meteen aardig omhoog maar na rechtsaf en daarna linksaf (doodlopende weg) te zijn geslagen wordt het steil - en dat blijft zo voor een lange tijd. Tussen de huizen en langs de begraafplaats is het al stevig klimmen maar nadat je links hebt aangehouden ga je de holle weg in en wordt het echt hard aanpoten. Daarna vlakt het af en volgt nog een mooi landelijk stuk tot waar hat asfalt ophoudt. Op de terugweg hier ook mooi uitzicht. Over de hele linie redelijk tot goed asfalt.
