Nice little climb, with varied steepness but quite acceptable on average (considering the many 15％+ climbs here). It starts on a fairly busy road, but the last stretch is very quiet, between the trees and passable. Unfortunately, the reward with a view is meagre due to the overgrowth.... read more

Leuk klimmetje, met afwisselende steiltegraad maar gemiddeld vrij acceptabel (gezien de vele 15％+ klimmen hier). Het begint op een redelijk drukke weg, maar het laatste stuk is erg rustig, tussen de bomen en goed begaanbaar. Helaas is de beloning met uitzicht magertjes door de begroeiing.
