It is indeed a hidden gem! The signs beside the road say it all...18 ％ . It starts off snappy right away on a well-laid cobbled strip still in the village. As soon as the houses stop, it changes to asphalt and immediately goes uphill. Halfway, you get some great views over the harbour and the water, but you don't really have time for that because you're not there yet. After a few hundred metres, it flattens out a bit and you see one of the holes of the golf course.
Het is inderdaad een verborgen juweeltje! De bordjes naast de weg zeggen genoeg...18 ％ . Hij begint gelijk al pittig op een goed liggende kasseien strook nog in het dorp. Zodra de huizen ophouden gaat hij over op asfalt en ook gelijk stijl ophoog. Halverwege krijg hé wat mee van geweldige uitzicht over de haven en het water, maar eigenlijk heb je daar geen tijd voor, want je bent er nig niet. Na een paar honderd meter vlakt hij wat af en zie één van de holes van de golfbaan opdoemen.
