Definitely a nice hidden climb. It takes some searching how to get from one street to the other but once you've fixed that, it's definitely a nice little climb in the area

Climb that starts nicely at the little church and gets more and more beautiful as the climb progresses. In the first part you see the cobblestone road rise nicely and after turning left it goes up nicely and a nice view unfolds on the left. The very last bit is then in the forest again and climbs a bit more.
