Long climb that gets more and more beautiful as it progresses. Magnificent views at the end point! In terms of percentages, it's not too bad, occasional spikes to 11 per cent but never long.

Lange klim die naarmate hij vordert steeds mooier wordt. Magnifiek uitzicht op het eindpunt! Qua percentages valt het mee, af en toe een uitschieter naar 11 procent maar nooit lang.
