Our cottage was pretty much the last house on the mountain, so I got to know this beguiling little thing quite well. 18 hairpin bends over a length of 7 kilometres: madness, but also insanely clean. The slaloming road through the greenery, the church of Malta shrinking a little after each bend, the higher Alpine peaks in the distance, the approaching forest ... I found it an experience of pure beauty. Also because you have the road almost all to yourself. During the entire climb you hardly cross any cars. And a good thing too, because it is not a wide road, and while zigzagging it doesn't get any narrower. At one point my bike computer read 6 km/h, and my zigzagging wheels threatened to disappear into a cattle grid. Highly recommended both in terms of physical challenge and aesthetic experience, in short.

Ons vakantiehuisje was zowat het laatste huis op de berg, dus dit bekoorlijke ondingetje heb ik best goed leren kennen. 18 haarspeldbochten over een lengte van 7 kilometer: Waanzin, maar ook waanzinnig schoon. Het slalommende weggetje door het groen, de kerk van Malta die na elke bocht weer een beetje krimpt, de hogere Alpentoppen in de verte, het naderende woud, … ik vond het een ervaring van pure schoonheid. Ook omdat je de weg quasi voor jou alleen hebt. Tijdens de hele beklimming kruis je amper auto’s. En maar goed ook, want een brede weg is het niet, en al zigzaggend wordt die er niet smaller op. Op een bepaald moment gaf mijn fietscomputer 6 km/u aan, en dreigden mijn zigzaggende wielen in een veerooster te verdwijnen. Zowel qua fysieke uitdaging als qua esthetische beleving een aanrader, kortom.
