Nice little climb that doesn't amount to much but has nice scenery. Watch out for the tractor lock just over the top!... read more

Nice little climb that doesn't amount to much but has nice scenery. Watch out for the tractor lock just over the top!

Leuk klimmetje dat niet veel voorstelt maar wel een mooie omgeving heeft. Opletten voor de tractorsluis net over de top!

Like many other climbs in this area, you start between houses but this climb eventually ends up at a wooded nature reserve which gives with some extra cachet. Also, just a bit more spice than other climbs. The road surface is fine.

Net zoals veel andere klimmen in deze omgeving begin je tussen de huizen maar deze klim komt uiteindelijk uit bij een bosrijk natuurgebied wat met wat extra cachet geeft. Bovendien ook net wat meer pit dan andere klimmen. Het wegdek is prima.

Still worth 4 stars compared to other Cuesta climbs. Mainly because of the pleasant environment when you reach the top (nice forest on the right, lots of greenery). The start of the climb is still between houses.

In vergelijking met andere Cuesta klimmetjes toch 4 sterren waard. Vooral door de aangename omgeving wanneer je boven komt (mooi bos aan de rechter kant, veel groen). Het begin van de klim is nog tussen de huizen.

Nice little climb, almost always start from standstill when you turn up here. At the top, you cycle through a beautiful piece of nature with the lake on the right-hand side.

Mooi klimmetje, bijna altijd vanuit stilstand vertrekken als je hier opdraait. Boven fiets je ook nog even door een mooi stukje natuur met het meer aan de rechterkant.

Very short climb but firm. When you turn onto it from Gentstraat you're guaranteed to fall silent because of the steepness that immediately comes at you.

Zeer korte beklimming maar wel stevig. Wanneer je er vanaf de Gentstraat opdraait val je gegarandeerd stil door de steilte die meteen op je afkomt.
