Nice route! As a connoisseur of the region it seems appropriate to me to turn left in the half of the Louwijn and then right to climb the nicer side of the Morette mountain instead of the stone road that's being used now.
Leuke route! Als kenner van de streek lijkt het me wel aangewezen om in de helft van de Louwijn links af te slaan en dan rechts de mooiere kant van de Moretteberg te beklimmen ipv de steenweg die nu aangedaan wordt.
