Traffic-free and well-bulged strip of asphalt that rises slightly. The road is well sheltered by the dense rows of trees along both sides.
At the end of the climb, you end up on a moderately convex macadam road, which forms the back of the Schaffen military estate. It's doable, but the difference from the asphalt on the Rodeberg is still striking.
This slope is mainly a nice crossing to the other side of Diest if you want to avoid the busy brick roads there. But you definitely shouldn't do it here for the steepness.
Verkeersluwe en goed bollende strook asfalt die lichtjes oploopt. De weg is goed beschut door de dichte bomenrijen langs beide kanten.
Aan het einde van de klim kom je op een matig bollende macadambaan terecht, dewelke de achterzijde van het militair domein van Schaffen vormt. Het is te doen, maar het verschil met het asfalt op de Rodeberg is toch opvallend.
Deze helling is vooral een mooie doorsteek naar de andere kant van Diest indien je de drukke steenwegen aldaar wilt vermijden. Maar voor de steiltegraad moet je het hier zeker niet doen.
