Nice ride, beautiful scenery and some pretty nice villages. A drinking water point at lower Berghe. However, the roads are strewn with rockfalls, so be careful with your tyres. The road is very narrow, so it won't be the most pleasant descent.... read more

Nice ride, beautiful scenery and some pretty nice villages. A drinking water point at lower Berghe. However, the roads are strewn with rockfalls, so be careful with your tyres. The road is very narrow, so it won't be the most pleasant descent.

Chouette monté, de beaux paysages et des villages assez sympas. Un point d'eau potable à Berghe inférieur. En revanche, les routes sont parsemées de chutes de roches, donc attention les pneus, la route étant très étroite, ce ne sera pas la descente la plus plaisante.

A cute little road, very narrow and winding its way through pleasant countryside. A lovely walk on a deserted road. You climb between red and sometimes green rocks and a low wall.
The gradients are steep but never really difficult. Some nice switchbacks. A very pleasant descent.

Une mignonne petite route très étroite qui serpente à sa guise à travers des paysages agréables. Une jolie balade sur une route déserte. On grimpe entre roches rouges, parfois vertes et un muret.
Les pourcentages sont soutenus mais jamais vraiment difficiles. De jolis lacets. Une descente très plaisante.
