The most striking and fun part of this climb is in the beginning... provided you like wet tyres and tiny roads because after a ford (bumpy so pay attention) it is immediately a nice steep climb on a small and winding road to the main road. Turn left here where the slope continues almost as steeply to the church. You continue following the main road with a few bends through the village where the percentage does decrease sharply.
You can avoid the ford via a small footbridge (a few metres away), or take the road south of it but then you also miss the first steep section.
Het opvallendste én het leukste van deze klim zit in het begin... mits je van natte banden en piepkleine weggetjes houdt want na een doorwaadbare plaats (hobbelig dus opletten) is het meteen lekker steil klimmen over een klein en bochtig weggetje naar de hoofdweg. Hier linksaf waar de helling vrijwel net zo steil doorloopt tot aan de kerk. Je volgt de hoofdweg verder met enkele bochten door het dorp waarbij het percentage wel sterk afneemt.
De doorwaadbare plaats kan je vermijden via een voetgangersbruggetje (enkele meters verderop), of de weg ten zuiden hiervan nemen maar dan mis je ook het eerste steile stuk.
