Don't be fooled by the average gradient. The last 4 km are quite tough and at times really steep. Too bad there are no beautiful views at the top and along the way, that would possibly ease the suffering.

Laat je niet misleiden door het gemiddelde stijgingspercentage. De laatste 4 km zijn flink zwaar en af en toe echt heel steil. Jammer dat er boven en onderweg geen mooie uitzichten zijn, dat zou het lijden mogelijk wat verzachten.

A lovely, contrasting climb that starts out very rolling and ends in pain :-). Even without a panorama, the summit is a nice place to rest for a while after the climb (meadow surrounded by copses, explanatory signs, etc.).

Belle montée contrastée qui démarre de manière très roulante et se termine dans la douleur :-). Même sans panorama, le sommet est sympa pour se poser quelque temps après l'ascension (prairie entourée de bosquets, panneaux explicatifs, ...).

Really serious climb. Not that long, but nice steep sections. Especially the last part takes some effort. Definitely do it if you are in the area. I have been up there three times now and it was always quiet. Hardly any car traffic either.

Echte serieuze klim. Niet zo lang, wel lekkere steile stukken. Vooral het laatste deel is even aanzetten. Zeker doen als je in de buurt bent. Ben er nu drie keer boven geweest en het was altijd rustig. Ook nauwelijks autoverkeer.

Nice climb. This is the Jura! It's green, lots of trees. A real good preparation for the Alps. Watch out for the few speed bumps on the way down.

Chouette ascension. C’est bien le Jura ! C’est vert, beaucoup d’arbres. Une vraie bonne préparation pour les Alpes. Attention aux quelques dos d’ânes dans la descente.

On the last 4 km there are regularly percentages above 10. The road is very well maintained (watch out for the speed bumps on the way down). Few cars on weekdays.

Sur les 4 derniers km il y a régulièrement des pourcentages au dessus de 10. La route est très bien entretenue (attention aux « dos d’âne » en redescendant). Peu de voitures en semaine.
