If you choose not to go via Wimereux, but to head a little more inland towards Boulogne-sur-Mer, you will encounter Mont Gaillard. It really starts to climb after the railroad crossing, from where it goes up for 400 meters to the top to slowly go down again. If your final destination is Boulogne-sur-Mer or a stop on a terrace, this is the moment to test the explosiveness of your cycling companions. Although the slope briefly touches the 10% mark, the steep part is short enough to give you a good run for your money.
Wanneer je er voor kiest niet via Wimereux, maar iets meer land inwaarts richting Boulogne-sur-Mer te rijden, kom je de Mont Gaillard tegen. Het begint pas echt te klimmen na de spoorweg overgang, vanwaar het 400 meter echt goed omhoog gaat om richting de top langzaam weer wat af te vlakken. Mocht Boulogne-sur-Mer de eindbestemming zijn of een tussenstop op het terras, is dit het moment om de explosiviteit van je fietskompanen eens uit te testen. Hoewel de helling de 10% heel even aantikt, is het steile stuk kort genoeg om eens flink door te trekken.
