On paper, it looks like a nice little climb: twisty, steep, long. The scenery is nice too - but the road surface is terribly bad (the first part then), with even a dig in it. This is in climbfinder's Urban Tour de Namur route, and this route is not really recommended in terms of road surface then. There are hugely bad sections in it, and this one is 1 of them.... 1 time and never again this one.... read more

Op papier lijkt het een leuk klimmetje: bochtjes, steil, lang. De omgeving is ook wel mooi - maar het wegdek is verschrikkelijk slecht (het eerste deel dan), met zelf een graven stukje erin. Deze zit in de Urban Tour de Namur route van climbfinder, en deze route is niet echt een aanrader qua wegdek dan. Er zitten enorm slechte stukken in, en deze is er 1 van.. 1 keer en nooit meer deze.
