A fairly even climb in relation to the various surrounding mountains. Almost like a small pass, on a good road. Things to do

Montée assez réguliére par rapport aux différents monts aux alentours. Ressemble presque à un petit col, sur une bonne route. À faire

The first section on the "Chemin de Berthen au Mont Noir" is rather timid.
The central section, which begins when you join the D318, is considerably more demanding.
The end in the forest calms down.
I was a little disappointed by the Mont Noir, which seemed to me to be less astonishing, less special than the Mont des Cats or Mont Cassel, which have real specificities and leave real memories. So, yes, here you're closer to nature, but these few ugly houses spoil everything.
I'm going to look for a more memorable side.

La première partie sur le « Chemin de Berthen au Mont Noir » est plutôt timide.
Le tronçon central qui commence quand l’on rejoint la D318, est nettement plus exigeant.
La fin dans la forêt s’apaise.
J’ai été un peu déçu du Mont Noir qui m’est apparu moins étonnant, moins particulier que le Mont des Cats ou le Mont Cassel, qui ont de vraies spécificités et qui laissent de vrais souvenirs. Alors, oui, ici, on est plus proche de la nature mais ces quelques maisons moches gâchent tout.
Je vais me mettre en quête d’un versant plus mémorable.

Not a moment flat, just keep pushing to the top.

Geen moment vlak, gewoon blijven duwen tot de top.

The first part of the climb is the most pleasant. You cycle on a small road and have some views. Then you come to a crossroads where, if you are unlucky, you lose your rhythm as there is some traffic anyway. After this, the actual climb begins. It's not super steep but still steep and long enough to tire your legs. At the top you get to the border with Belgium and there are lots of catering outlets.

Het eerste stuk van de klim is het meest aangenaam. Je fietst op een kleine weg en hebt wat uitzicht. Dan kom je op een kruispunt waar je als je pech hebt je ritme kwijt bent gezien er toch wel wat verkeer is. Hierna begint de eigenlijke klim. Het is niet super steil maar toch steil en lang genoeg om je benen te vermoeien. Boven kom je aan de grens met België en zijn er veel horeca.

Comment to confirm the 2 previous opinions. I was surprised by the short descent with 70km already behind me. I wasn't expecting the 2nd part, which isn't difficult in itself, but it takes it out of you if you've given it your all beforehand.

Commentaire pour confirmer les 2 avis précédents. Je me suis laissée surprendre par la petite descente avec déjà 70km derrière moi. Je ne m’attendais pas à la 2ème partie qui n’est pas difficile en soi mais coupe les jambes si vous avez tout donné avant.

Helemaal eens met onderstaande omschrijving. Als deze op een kilometer of 95 op je tocht zit is het een verraderlijk ding.

This is a climb that can be quite a surprise, especially if you have already done a full tour. If you don't know it, you think it's over after 800m because of the downhill section, but what follows after that is hard work! Fortunately no heavy percentages, but it goes on for a miserably long time. To be completely broken!

Dit is een beklimming waar je je stevig op kan verkijken, zeker als je er al een hele tocht op hebt zitten. Als je hem niet kent denk je dat het na 800m al gedaan is door dat stukje afdaling dat erin zit, maar wat er daarna volgt is nog stevig afzien! Gelukkig geen hele zware percentages, maar hij blijft ellendig lang doorgaan. Om helemaal stuk op te gaan!
