Compared with the traditional Saint Roch, this variant is no less steep, just a little shorter. And if you are coming from Mabompré, rue Eugène Isaye immediately gives a clear impression of a "wall" (see photo). And the impression is not misleading! :-)... read more

Par rapport au Saint Roch traditionnel, cette variante n'est pas moins difficile en pente, juste un peu plus courte. Et si l'on vient de Mabompré, la rue Eugène Isaye donne en effet tout de suite une nette impression de « mur » (voir photo). Et l'impression n'est pas trompeuse ! :-)

Nice alternative approach route from Saint Roche if you come from Mambompre. As you cycle into Houffalize you will soon see this 'wall' then looming on your right. It is advisable to take a run-up because once in the Rue Eugene Ysaye, there is no turning back and you have to pedal flat out. At the crossroads you then keep right to continue down the legendary 'Saint Roche' further.

Mooie alternatieve aanfietsroute van Saint Roche als je vanuit Mabompré komt. Als je Houffalize binnen fiets zie je deze 'muur' dan al spoedig aan je rechterhand opdoemen. Het is aan te raden om een aanloopje te nemen want eenmaal in de Rue Eugene Ysaye is er geen weg meer terug en moet je vol in de pedalen. Op het kruispunt hou je dan rechts aan om de legendarische 'Saint Roche' verder te vervolgen.
