The name of this climb sounds very fairytale-like, but it is a wolf in sheep's clothing. You soon see a wall looming and at the foot of the wall you notice that the road surface is not helping either. On the smallest resistance and push on. There is not a whole lot of view, but on these deserted country roads you can sometimes catch glimpses of the sea. It is certainly quiet here.... read more

De naam van deze klim klinkt heel sprookjesachtig, maar het is een wolf in schaapskleren. Je ziet al vrij snel een muur opdoemen en aan de voet van de muur merk je dat het wegdek ook niet meehelpt. Op het kleinste verzet en duwen maar. Er is niet heel veel uitzicht, maar op deze verlaten buitenweggetjes kun je soms een glimps van de zee opvangen. Rustig is het hier zeker.
