Serious climb for this area! First part narrow with oncoming traffic so watch out here. Then up through a pleasant road with good tarmac. The climb has another cobbled section in the spur, which you can take in the gutter along the right though.... read more

Serieus klimmetje voor deze buurt! Eerste deel smal met tegenliggers dus opletten hier. Daarna door een gezellig weggetje met goed asfalt omhoog. De klim heeft in de uitloper nog een kasseistrookje in petto die je wel in het gootje langs rechts kan nemen.

It's the variant of the Alsemberg wall used by the Groene Gordelroute, a signposted cycle route which, as its name suggests, circles Brussels. Probably because, compared with the "standard" version of the climb, this one is a little more direct and a little less busy.

C'est la variante du mur d'Alsemberg empruntée par la « Groene Gordelroute » (un circuit balisé pour cyclistes qui, comme son nom l'indique, ceinture Bruxelles) sans doute parce que, par rapport à la version « standard » de la côte, celle-ci est un peu plus directe et un peu moins fréquentée.
