It stings a bit in the first half, both on the legs and in the brain as you can pretty much see it straight ahead of you: better keep the head down and focus on keeping the watts where you want them to be. After the first steep bit, the gradient tapers quite quickly and there's room to breathe as you get into the village... read more

Here the devil is not in the tail, but right at the beginning. You ride over a nice road surface into a dark hole (especially if it is cloudy). After a few hundred metres you've had the hardest part and it's false flat between the houses. This is a narrow street you do end up in which ends at the provincial road.

Hier zit het venijn niet in de staart, maar juist in het begin. Je rijdt over een mooi wegdek een donker gat in(zeker als het bewolkt is). Na een paar honderd meter heb je het zwaarste gehad en is het vals plat tussen de huizen door. Dit is wel een smal straatje waar je in terecht komt wat eindigt bij de provinciale weg.

Short and nice climb that goes almost straight up. When you start you think you see the whole climb before you. That is true for the steep part but then the climb continues just a bit longer. Good tarmac and nice views to the left.

Kort en lekker klimmetje die vrijwel recht naar boven loopt. Als je begint denk je dat je de hele klim al voor je ziet. Dat geldt wel voor het steile gedeelte naar daarna loopt de klim nog net wat langer door. Goed asfalt en aardig uitzicht over links.

Not a very long climb, but because of the steep first half you don't get it for free. On the power to do, if you have good legs. If you have a bad day, it will not work.

Geen bijster lange klim, maar door de steile eerste helft krijg je hem niet cadeau. Op de macht te doen, mits je goede benen hebt. Als je een mindere dag hebt loopt het voor geen meter.

Nice if you are in Munstergeleen to take a short cut before descending via the windrakerberg to Sittard.
Comes out at Windraak.

Leuk als je in Munstergeleen bent om nog even een knipje te nemen alvorens via de windrakerberg naar Sittard af te dalen.
Komt boven bij Windraak uit.
