Beautiful climb with great views. Along the way, you encounter two 'ghosttowns' new construction projects that were never put into operation. The road was incredibly quiet and practically car-free (July 2023) . This is because at the beginning of the climb, the road is closed to traffic because of huge subsidence (see photo). By bike, you can easily pass it. During the whole climb, I came across 2 cars's and a motorbike. Apart from the few spots waas the road subsided, the asphalt is in excellent condition.

Mooie klim met prachtige uitzichten. Onderweg kom je twee 'ghosttowns' tegen, nieuwbouwprojecten die nooit in gebruik zijn genomen. De weg was ongelofelijk rustig en praktisch autovrij (juli 2023) . Dit omdat aan het begin van de klim de weg voor verkeer is afgesloten vanwege enorme verzakkingen (zie foto). Met de fiets kun je er gemakkelijk langs. Tijdens de hele klim ben ik 2 auto's en een motorfiets tegen gekomen. Behalve de paar plekken waas de weg verzakt is, is het asfalt in uitstekende staat.
