Short but very steep wall that shoots up immediately out of the valley toward Loverval. Despite its limited length, you're in high percentages almost constantly, making it more of an explosive effort than a climb to dose. A short but serious ordeal.... read more

Short but very steep wall that shoots up immediately out of the valley toward Loverval. Despite its limited length, you're in high percentages almost constantly, making it more of an explosive effort than a climb to dose. A short but serious ordeal.

Korte maar zeer steile muur die meteen uit de vallei omhoog schiet richting Loverval. Ondanks de beperkte lengte zit je vrijwel constant in hoge percentages, waardoor het meer een explosieve inspanning is dan een klim om te doseren. Een korte, maar serieuze beproeving.

It's a small climb in terms of length, but with some really steep gradients! You have to sneak up a bit to get the footing, then it climbs very steeply almost non-stop.

C'est une petite côte par sa longueur mais avec des pourcentages vraiment importants ! Il faut un peu se faufiler pour aller chercher le pied, puis ça monte très fort quasi sans discontinuer.

One of the best climbs I have ever done! I did it with a mountain bike as the percentage was quite high.
At the end a sign shows 10 ％ but in reality the percentages are really much higher than 10 ％. I highly recommend it.

Une des meilleures montées que j'ai jamais monté! Je l'ai faite avec un VTT vu le pourcentage assez élevé.
À la fin un panneau montre 10 ％ mais en réalité les pourcentages sont vraiment beaucoup plus haut que 10 ％. Je recommande vivement.
