Ik denk dat dit de prettigste kant is om naar Bergeval te klimmen. Het begin is stevig maar niet te snel en loopt geleidelijk omhoog. Het stuk wat bijna vlak is loopt mooi door de bossen

Nice climb where only the beginning is a bit of a push, then it goes on nicely. Scenery and views also very nice, also the last km, then it is however the same way back to Bergeval for everything on narrow tyres.
Last few 100m before the top the holes get bigger and bigger and after the top they turn into full gravel. Descent is then a total of 500m of gravel and parts of bad tarmac, can be walked but will probably cost a set of cleats.

Mooie klim waar alleen het begin even aanzetten is, daarna loopt hij lekker door. Omgeving en uitzicht ook erg mooi, ook de laatste km, daarna is het echter omkeren en zelfde weg terug tot Bergeval voor alles op smalle banden.
Laatste paar 100m voor de top worden de gaten steeds groter om na de top over te gaan in volledige gravel. Afdaling is dan totaal 500m gravel en stukken slecht asfalt, is te lopen maar kost waarschijnlijk wel een set cleats.
