Fantastic climb that looms before you from Rue Fernández Nicolay like a veritable wall. Surprisingly, the climb leads through a wooded area and is low-traffic as it is only used by local residents. Once you leave the forest, the climb flattens out but the fun doesn't end there, because at a junction you can then turn diagonally right into Rue de la Justice and climb quite a bit more. A beast of a climb!... read more

Fantastische klim die vanaf de Rue Fernández Nicolay als een ware muur voor je opdoemt. De klim leidt verrassend genoeg door een bosachtige en is verkeersarm want wordt alleen gebruikt door aanwonenden. Als je het bos uitrijdt vlakt de klim af maar dan is de lol nog niet op, want op een kruising kun je dan schuin rechts de Rue de la Justice inslaan en nog even flink pittig klimmen. Een beest van een klim!

Nice and ridiculously steep climb. Was at the end of a long ride with a lot of climbing, so it seemed extra painful.
Perfectly rideable.

Lekker pittig en belachelijk stijl klimmetje. Zat op het einde van een lange rit met veel klimmeters, dus hij leek extra pijnlijk.
Uitstekend berijdbaar.

Runs parallel to Saint-Nicolas. Unfortunately the cobble stones are gone. But it's still a very difficult climb. When you get on top of Rue Vieux-Thier you can catch your breath before you start Rue de la Justice, the second steep part.

Loopt parallel met Saint-Nicolas. Jammer genoeg zijn de kasseien verdwenen. Maar het blijft toch een zeer lastig ding. Als je boven komt op rue Vieux-Thier kan je even op adem komen vooraleer je aan Rue de la Justice, het 2de steile stuk, begint.

Pretty steep and especially the follow-up! The sign indicates 16%, but I think that's euphemistic! Nearby in the suburb of Jemeppe (Liège) is the Rue de la Halette (discovered by accident). It's not a long climb but the 18% sign must be true.

Lekker steil zeg en vooral de nastoot mag er wezen! Het bord geeft 16 procent aan, maar volgens mij is dat eufemistisch uitgedrukt! Hier in de buurt in de Luikse voorstad Jemeppe bevindt zich de Rue de la Halette (toevallig ontdekt). Het is geen lange beklimming maar het bord van 18 procent moet wel waarheidsgetrouw zijn.

The cobblestones are now (unfortunately) buried under a layer of asphalt, but it's still a terribly steep thing.

De kasseien liggen inmiddels (helaas) onder een laag asfalt begraven, maar het blijft een vreselijk stijl ding.
