So short that you can give it your all the whole climb. Hop, hop, sprint! Once at the top you can turn right & descend along the mill.

Zo kort dat je de ganse klim alles kan geven. Hop hop, sprinten maar! Eens boven kan je rechts afslaan & langs de molen afdalen.

From the top of the Poelberg, which is also a place of pilgrimage (there's a Lourdes grotto on the top), you get a wonderful view of the city of Tielt and its surroundings. Nice to do, it's part of the Mandeldalfietsroute.

Vanop de top van de Poelberg die tevens een bedevaartsoord is (er staat op de top een Lourdesgrot) bekom je een prachtig zicht op de stad Tielt en omgeving, de beklimming zelf is venijnig maar zo kort dat je met enkele lendenrukken al snel boven bent. Leuk om eens te doen, maakt deel uit van de Mandeldalfietsroute.

Nice climb if you're in the neighbourhood and don't want to go to the Flemish Ardennes right away. Stand up straight on the pedals and before you know it you're at the top.

Leuk klimmetje als je in de buurt bent en niet direct naar de Vlaamse Ardennen wenst te gaan. Rechtstaan op de trappers en voor je het beseft ben je boven.

One hard pedal and you're over it!

Een keer hard doortrappen en je zit erover!
