What a hell of a climb! Steep and luckily not too long. It's a climb which is a bit atypical for this region where the climbs are generally less intense and longer. This is a Walloon mean one. The percentage keeps going up and you go up in about 5 steps. Each staircase reaches the 10% and just before the top you reach the 15%. The descent is careful because at every exit of a yard there is coarse and sharp gravel on the road. Of the two sides, this is the toughest.... read more

Wat een hark van een klim! Steil en gelukkig niet al te lang. Het is een klim die een beetje atypisch is voor deze streek waar de klimmen minder heftig en langer zijn over het algemeen. Dit is een Waalse gemene. Het percentage blijft op een naar gaan en je gaat in plm. 5 trapjes omhoog. Iedere trap haalt de 10% en vlak voor de top tik je de 15% aan. De afdaling is opletten omdat bij iedere uitrit van een erf er grof en scherp grind op de weg ligt. Van de twee kanten is dit de zwaarste.
