You can take the word wall literally. It is not the steepest in the area but still. Without a very small resistance, you will drive your legs to hell as they say in Belgium. Fortunately, there are regular bends in the road, otherwise you get discouraged and want to turn back. Even though it is only 1 km long you feel it.... read more

Een muur om U tegen te zeggen en het woird muur mag je letterlijk nemen. Het is wel niet de steilste in de buurt maar toch. Zonder een zeer klein verzet rij je je benen naar de vaantjes zoals ze in België zeggen. Gelukkig regelmatig een bocht want anders keert de moed in de schoenen en wil je terugkeren.
Ook al is hij maar goed 1 km lang voelen die je het.
