Lekker lopende vals plat klim vanuit Gelrode richting Wezemaal. Met wind tegen is het wel harken om boven te komen.

Nice climb. Definitely not steep. If you keep pedalling you will definitely be doing 30 per hour. When you think the climb is done you come between the fields and if there is a wind it can still hurt pretty badly.

Mooie klim. Zeker niet steil. Als je door trapt rijd je zeker 30 per uur. Wanneer je denkt dat de klim gedaan is kom je tussen de velden en als er dan wind staat kan dat nog pittig zeer doen.

Shallow grandients, so not the biggest challenge and with a tailwind, the climb was barely noticeable. Still a nice climb as the road is pretty quiet and the scenery is very nice.

Nice long climb in a nice and quiet area. I always drive past it when I'm in the area.

Leuke lange klim in een mooie en rustige omgeving. Ik rij er altijd even langs als ik in de buurt ben.

The Sven Nys cycle route passes through here, shortly after the Wezemaal Wall. This climb is much less steep and quite long, and offers a nice setting.

La route cycliste Sven Nys passe par ici, peu après le Mur de Wezemaal. Cette montée-là est bien moins pentue et assez longue, et permet de profiter d'un cadre sympathique.

One of the longer climbs in the Hageland. Never steep, so very doable.
Beautiful surroundings (you ride through agricultural areas), and there is a brasserie located at the foot of this climb.
In short: everything is there to catch your breath.

Eén van de langere beklimmingen in het Hageland. Nooit steil, dus zeer goed te doen.
Mooie omgeving (je rijdt door landbouwgebied), en er is een brasserie gelegen aan de voet van deze klim.
Kortom: alles is aanwezig om even op adem te komen.

This one is doable. It is not so steep and also in terms of length it is not so bad. But definitely a beautiful hollow road. And at the top you end up in a beautiful orchard with a view.
For those who prefer a bit steeper: take the Donkerstraat.

Deze is goed te doen. Hij wordt niet zo steil en ook qua lengte valt hij mee. Maar absoluut een mooie holle weg. En boven kom je in een mooie boomgaard met uitzicht terecht.
Voor wie het liever wat steiler heeft: neem de Donkerstraat.

Never steep but long and above certainly difficult if you have headwind. Sometimes there are cars through which you sometimes have to slow down to be able to cross on the narrow road.

Nooit steil maar wel lang en boven zeker lastig als je tegenwind hebt. Soms komen er auto's door waardoor je soms sterk moet vertragen om te kunnen kruisen op de smalle weg.

To take a breather after the wall of wezemael. Quiet, beautiful runner with wide views of the vineyards. At the top the wind has free play, which can make the climb a bit more difficult.

Om even op adem te komen na de muur van wezemael. Rustige, mooie loper met weidse uitzichten op de wijngaarden. Boven heeft de wind vrij spel, wat de klim iets lastiger kan maken.

Nice longer climb in the Hageland. The first meters in the forest you shouldn't forget, because if you're unlucky the wind is right on your nose after 700 meters of climbing. And then you can get some serious chips here.

Leuke langere klim in het Hageland. De eerste meters in het bos mag je je zeker niet vergalloperen, want als je pech hebt staat de wind na een 700-tal meter klimmen, wanneer je het bos uitkomt, pal op de neus. En dan kan je hier een serieuze patat krijgen.

Indeed a beautiful climb where on the large plateau to sprint up. Sometimes a strong headwind once you come out of the hollow road and trees. The spur is disappointing in my opinion because the first part bends better than the spur. At the top there's a beautiful view over the Hageland and you'll find a succession of hills. Very nice and quiet roads, especially down at the busy inn, you have to watch out. My best time is 2'33" but that is with Strava and stops after 680 meters at the chapel at the right angle. An absolute must.

Inderdaad een mooie klim waar op de grote plateau naar boven kan spurten . Soms wel hevige tegenwind eens je uit de holle weg en bomen komt. De uitloper valt wel tegen vind ik wan het eerste stuk bolt beter dan de uitloper. Boven een prachtig uitzicht over het Hageland en je vindt er een aaneenschakeling van heuvels. Erg mooie en rustige wegen , juist beneden aan de druk bezochte herberg moet je uitkijken . Mijn beste tijd is 2'33" maar dat is met Strava en stopt na 680 meter aan het kapelletje aan de haakse bocht. Een absolute aanrader.

Nice climb for the big plate or as a warm-up. You climb from the cozy inn very evenly in a hollow road upwards. That makes this climb of view a topper. At the top you come between the fruit trees, so certainly in the spring worthwhile. Keep going up there, the strava segment is still behind the curve to the left.

Leuke beklimming voor op de grote plaat of als opwarmer. Je klimt vanaf het de gezellige herberg heel gelijkmatig in een holle weg naar boven. Dat maakt deze klim van uitzicht een topper. Bovenop kom je tussen de fruitbomen, dus zeker in de lente de moeite. Blijf daar nog doortrekken, het strava-segment ligt nog achter de bocht naar links.
