When you see the profile you think "Yes yes it will" but this is indeed an incredibly good runner, with a nice percentage and car-free besides.

Nice wooded area and you start at the reservoir which (at least in winter) you occasionally have a view of in the first part. All in all, a very pleasant climb and a perfect continuation of "Les Lacets du Lac de la Gileppe" because you end up on the main road to Jalhay where it is narrower again, thus missing the somewhat unattractive wide section of the main road.
Als je het profiel ziet denk je "Ja ja het zal wel" maar dit is inderdaad een ontzettend goede loper, met een lekker percentage en autovrij bovendien. Het asfalt was nu bedekt met bladeren en sneeuw wat het wel zwaarder trappen maakte. Daaronder zat goed maar in het eerste deel wat ruw asfalt, in het tweede deel loopt het asfalt wat lekkerder. Mooie bosrijke omgeving en je begint bij het stuwmeer waar je (in de winter althans) in het eerste deel zo nu en dan ook nog uitzicht op hebt. Al met al een zeer aangename klim en een perfect vervolg (waarbij je tussendoor over de stuwdam rijdt) op "Les Lacets du Lac de la Gileppe" omdat je op de hoofdweg naar Jalhay uitkomt waar deze weer smaller is en je zo het wat onaantrekkelijke brede stuk van de hoofdweg mist.
