Nice, not heavy climb, with beautiful views. The last 3 kilometers are a bit harder and are in the woods.

Lekkere, niet zware klim, met een prachtig uitzicht. De laatste 3 kilometers zijn iets zwaarder en die zijn in het bos.

A slope where we have an alternation of high percentages with flats which makes the ascent easier. We quickly pass the small passages with more than 10%.

Versant où l'on a une alternance de hauts pourcentages avec des replats ce qui facilite l'ascension. On a vite fait de passer les petits passages à plus de 10%.
