This climb is on tarmac but that stops at the end of the climb. The road then becomes a cart track which is good to ride in dry conditions and after a few hundred meters ends up on a concrete road. Here you can turn left and descend to Sluizen.
If you don't want to do that, you will have to turn around at the end and descend via the same road again, but don't let that stop you from tackling this one because it is a very nice climb. The percentage is steep during a large part of the climb and in the second half you pass a horse paddock and you have nice views of the valley next to you (even if you descend you have nice views). Unexpectedly good asphalt for such'n a road.
Deze klim loopt over asfalt maar dat houdt op aan het eind van de klim. De weg wordt dan een karrespoor wat bij droge omstandigheden wel goed te berijden is en na een paar honderd meter weer uitkomt op een betonweg. Hier kan je linksaf weer afdalen naar Sluizen.
Als je dat niet wil zal je op het eind moeten omdraaien en weer via dezelfde weg afdalen maar laat je dat niet weerhouden om deze mee te pakken want het is een heel lekker klimmetje. Het percentage is pittig gedurende een groot deel van de klim en in de tweede helft kom je langs een paardenweide en heb je leuk uitzicht op het dal naast je (ook als je afdaalt heb je fraai uitzicht). Onverwacht goed asfalt trouwens voor zo'n weggetje.
