There are two ways of looking at this climb: either easy if you take the gullies and smoother tarmac sections, or hard on very bad cobbles. Personally, I chose the second option :-)
Listed as a cotacol (which ends when you leave the woods)
Deux façons de voir cette ascension : soit facile si on prend les rigoles et sections en tarmac plus lisse, soit à la dure sur de très mauvais pavés. Personnellement j'ai choisi la deuxième option :-)
Répertoriée comme cotacol (qui se termine quand on sort des bois)
A fine climb through woods and then fields. You start at the old abbey and then leave the village. On its own, without the cobbles (on the cycle path), the climb is easy. For a bit more fun, try the cobbles.
Belle ascension dans les bois puis dans les champs. On démarre de l'ancienne abbaye puis on quitte le village. En soi sans les pavés ( sur la piste cyclable ) la montée est facile. Pour un peu plus de fun mettez vous sur les pavés
Fantastic climb in a surprising region. The climb starts right next to the beautiful abbey, under the railway bridge. Through the forest, the cobblestones immediately go up steeply, but there is a concrete bike path to cheat. Not a luxury because the stones are in a bad shape, and there's a lot of traffic. Once out of the forest the landscape opens up and becomes less steep.
It's a climb I like to make a detour for - definitely recommended to combine with a visit to the abbey.
Fantastische beklimming in een verrassende regio. De klim start vlak naast de prachtige abdij, onder de spoorwegbrug. Door het bos gaan de kasseien meteen steil omhoog, maar er is een betonnen fietspad om vals te spelen. Geen overbodige luxe want de stenen liggen er nogal slecht bij, en er kan nogal wat verkeer rijden. Eenmaal uit het bos opent het landschap zich en wordt het minder steil.
Een beklimming waarvoor ik graag om rijd - absoluut een aanrader om te combineren met een bezoek aan de abdij.
