Difficult and dirty descent to get to the base of the climb, but well worth it! It goes up through the forest at solid percentages, over a fairly poor road surface. At the top you arrive at one of the highest points in the area with beautiful views.... read more

Moeilijke en vuile afdaling om aan de voet van de klim te geraken, maar dat is het zeker waard! Het loopt door het bos tegen stevige percentages omhoog, over een vrij slecht wegdek. Boven kom je op één van de hoogste punten in de omgeving met mooie vergezichten.

From Sarémont, you descend into the valley on a deplorably bad road. After passing the Rau de Bolland stream, this short but tough climb through the forest begins on a still poor road surface. You have to keep working up to the top to move forward. Coming out of the forest you are also right at the top....

Vanaf Sarémont daal je over een erbarmelijk slechte weg het dal in. Na passage van de beek Rau de Bolland begint deze korte maar heftige klim door het bos over een nog steeds slecht wegdek. Je moet tot aan de top blijven werken om vooruit te komen. Als je het bos uitkomt ben je ook gelijk op de top..

Lovely climb. Good alternative to Thier Fouarge, which is slightly west. Located in beautiful, peaceful countryside. Poor road surface indeed, but that is bearable on the climb.

Heerlijke klim. Goed alternatief voor Thier Fouarge, die iets westelijker ligt. Ligt in mooi, rustig landschap. Inderdaad slecht wegdek, maar dat is klimmend wel te verstouwen.

Very bad road surface, but a tough climb in a beautiful region. Definitely worth taking if you are in the area

Zeer slecht wegdek, maar wel een pittig klimmetje in een mooie streek. Zeker mee te nemen indien je in de buurt bent

Steep climb that goes largely through a forest. Unfortunately, the road surface is terrible, even for Walloon standards.

Steile beklimming die grotendeels door een bos loopt. Helaas is het wegdek erbarmelijk slecht, zelfs voor waalse begrippen.
