Have done this climb a few times now, and keep misfiring a bit. Quite a steep section in the middle. Other than that, nice tarmac all over the climb. After the top, though, a bit of cobbles which you can miss if you've just climbed this mountain?

Heb deze klim nu al een paar keer gedaan, en mispak me er steeds wat aan. Best een steil stuk in het midden. Verder wel mooi asfalt over de hele klim. Na de top wel een stukje kasseien die je wel kan missen als je net deze berg beklommen hebt?

een doorsteekklim: niks speciaals aan, regelmatig, kan me niet herinneren dat er zolang 13% in zit om eerlijk te zijn. weilanden, rustig baantje. ideaal om tussen 2 bekendere/mooiere/... mee te nemen.

Nice climb without too much traffic, possibility to climb at your ease, after the climb a few hundred meters on cobblestones.

Belle montée sans trop de circulation, possibilité de monter à son aise, après la montée quelques centaines de mètres en pavés.

Nice climb with good tarmac. Going up slowly is not possible, after the steep part the trick is to speed up before the cobblestones. For the real Flemish feeling.

Leuke klim met goed asfalt. Rustig omhoog varen(t) zit er niet in, na het steile stukje is het de kunst nog flink tempo te maken voor de kasseien. Voor het échte Vlaamse gevoel.

From the start the asphalt road of the Varent winds steeply upwards...Don't be discouraged, 3 minutes in the red and the worst is over, although, when you think you're there, you still get a few 100m of cobblestones...

Je ziet het netjes geasfalteerde weggetje van de Varent vanaf de start stijl omhoog kronkelen...Laat je niet ontmoedigen, een 3-tal minuten in het rood en het ergste is voorbij, hoewel, als je denkt dat je er bent, krijg je nog een paar 100m kasseien voorgeschoteld...
