Oef, heavier than you would think at first glance. Definitely worthwhile to conquer. The first part is a light foretaste of what is to come: very long really steep. Take a good run with the descent, because after this are immediately the 500 heaviest meters. From the church it is a lot less difficult, but if you are already completely empty, it is still hard to get up here. One of the nicer and tougher climbs in the area and definitely worth breaking your back over.... read more

A pleasant climb with little traffic and a few hundred metres that are fairly rough but regular. The first part is fairly easy and the descent allows you to recover your legs before the difficult gradients. Beware that you have to take a main road with lots of traffic to reach the foot of the hill, which loses some of its charm.

Montée sympa avec peu de trafic et quelques centaines de mètres assez rudes mais réguliers. La première partie se passe assez facilement et la descente permet de récupérer les jambes avant les pourcentages difficiles. Attention qu'il faut emprunter une nationale avec beaucoup de trafic pour rejoindre le pied, ce qui lui fait perdre un peu de son charme.

Long climb with a descent well before half of it. If you think you can benefit from the speed of the descent for a long time, you will be deceived, as it climbs steeply thereon. The climb was part of the Brussels Hill Climb challenge.

Lange beklimming met ruim voor de helft een afdaling. Als je denkt lang van de snelheid van de afdaling te kunnen profiteren, kom je bedrogen uit, want het klimt daarop steil. De beklimming maakte deel uit van de Brussels Hill Climb challenge.

We start off on a fairly easy road with few gradients'that's the warm-up. After that, build up some momentum on the descent, because that's where the long, steep section awaits you. I still find the climb fairly easy for a 4th category climber, it goes up very easily on the small plateau, which is not the case for the côte du point du jour. At the top, I recommend continuing towards and crossing the Bois de La Houssière, which is quite quiet and restful.

On commence sur une petite route assez roulante avec peu de pourcentages, c'est l'échauffement. Après prenez de l'élan dans la descente car c'est là que la longue partie raide vous attend. Je trouve quand même la montée assez facile pour un 4ème catégorie, ça monte très facilement sur le petit plateau ce qui n'est pas le cas de la côte du point du jour. Au sommet je conseille de continuer vers le Bois de La Houssière et de traverser celui-ci, c'est assez calme et reposant.

Pretty tough climb. Style. Also a nice village if you come up. There is a grocery store and a vending machine to get some rest.

Best zware beklimming. Stijl. Ook nog wel een mooi dorpje als je boven komt. Daar is een kruidenier en een drankautomaat om wat bij te komen.

Oef, zwaarder dan je op het eerste gezicht zou denken. Zeker de moeite waard om te bedwingen. Het eerste deel is een licht voorsmaakje van wat komen gaat: heel lang echt steil. Neem een goede aanloop met de afdaling, want hierna liggen meteen de 500 zwaarste meters. Vanaf de kerk is het een pak minder zwaar, maar als je al volledig leeg zit, is het hier nog harken om boven te komen.

Een van de mooiere en zwaardere klimmen in de buurt en zeker de moeite om je volledig kapot te rijden.
