Climb with a viciously steep start that immediately hurts, then the profile quickly softens and transitions to a quieter but still beautiful setting.

Klim met een venijnig steil begin dat meteen pijn doet, waarna het profiel snel afzwakt en overgaat in een rustiger, maar nog steeds mooie omgeving.

Superb climb with this very nice little wall at the start. The climb is mainly concentrated on the first 600 metres because after that you don't really feel like you're climbing. The view over the region is quite pretty in places.

Superbe ascension avec ce petit mur très sympa au départ. L'ascension se concentre surtout sur les 600 premiers mètres car après on a plus trop l'impression de monter. La vue sur la région est assez jolie par endroit.

There is no way of getting into a rhythm on this climb. The first part cuts your legs off immediately after which you have to constantly shift gears to get ahead. The beautiful surroundings and the wall at the start make it a climb you should definitely do if you are in the area.
P.s.: Watch out for the tractor on the narrow track!

Van in je ritme komen is geen sprake op deze klim. Het eerste deel snijdt je meteen de benen af waarna het constant schakelen is om vooruit te komen. De prachtige omgeving en de muur op het begin maken het een klim die je zeker moet doen als je in de buurt bent.
P.s.: Opgepast op de smalle baan voor aanstormend tractorgeweld!
