The perfect alternative to climbing the Kemmelberg if you are not a fan of cobbles. I give both the cobbled side and this one 5 stars because of the setting, the gradients and the recognisability of the races run here. Indeed, this side is often used as the downhill but is definitely worth climbing too. The start in the Beukelaarstraat is already very beautiful and once you come between the trees in the Klokhofweg it certainly can't be beat. Just pay attention at the intersection with Lettingstraat. Be sure to have some energy left for the last 200 metres too!

Het perfecte alternatief om de Kemmelberg te beklimmen als je geen fan bent van kasseien. Ik geef zowel de kant met de kasseien als deze 5 sterren omwille van de omgeving, de stijgingspercentages en de herkenbaarheid van de koersen die hier gereden worden. Deze kant wordt inderdaad vaak gebruikt als de afdaling maar is zeker ook de moeite om te beklimmen. De start in de Beukelaarstraat is al heel mooi en zodra je tussen de bomen komt in de Klokhofweg kan het zeker niet meer stuk. Juist even opletten op het kruispunt met de Lettingstraat. Hou zeker ook nog wat energie over voor de laatste 200 meter!

In principe de afdaling maar wel de klim met het mooiste uitzicht op de valei terwijl je paar 'haarspeldbochtjes' neemt. Best aangenaam met ook steile stukken in.

The only climb in Flanders where I didn't get on top. I just couldn't get my pedals to turn and my heart rate was at 193, really hard.

De enige beklimming in Vlaanderen waar ik niet bovengeraakt ben. Het lukte me gewoon niet om mijn pedalen nog rond te krijgen en mijn hartslag zat op 193 echt verschrikkelijk zwaar

Nice alternative for those who want to avoid the cobblestones.

Leuk alternatief voor wie de kasseien wil vermijden.
