Quite a nice climb. The piece of unpaved road is certainly not a problem for a road bike and for me not at all with my mountain bike. Because of its length it is certainly worth to include in your course but it is never really steep or heavy because in the immediate vicinity are other mountains. In the summer months you'll meet a lot of tourists by bike and on foot because of the Vlooyberg tower which is the absolute attraction in the area. ... read more

Best een leuk klimmetje .
Het stukje onverharde weg is zeker geen probleem voor een wegfiets en voor mij helemaal niet met mijn mountainbike. Door zijn lengte is hij zeker de moeite om in je parcours op te nemen maar hij is nergens echt steil of zwaar want in de directe omgeving zijn andere bergjes.
In de zomermaanden kom je wel heel wat toeristen met de fiets en te voet tegen door de Vlooybergtoren die de absolute attractie is in de buurt .
