This climb is listed in the Cotacol encyclopedia (n° 930). Very irregular, steep in places and long for the region, it is overall one of the most difficult climbs in Brabant. Do not miss the splendid chapel of Saint Lutgarde, shortly after the start of the climb. Note that recently the road was cut off due to works, precisely at the level of this chapel.

This climb is listed in the Cotacol encyclopedia (n° 930). Very irregular, steep in places and long for the region, it is overall one of the most difficult climbs in Brabant.

Do not miss the splendid chapel of Saint Lutgarde, shortly after the start of the climb.

Côte répertoriée dans l'encyclopédie Cotacol (n° 930). Très irrégulière, pentue par endroits et longue pour la région, c'est globalement une des montées les plus difficiles du Brabant.

Ne pas manquer de jeter un œil sur la splendide chapelle Sainte-Lutgarde, peu après le début de la côte.

À noter que récemment, la route était coupée pour cause de travaux, précisément au niveau de cette chapelle. Mais peut-être que ces travaux sont terminés.
