A beautiful climb that starts off steep right away in the woods and remains challenging even as you pass the first houses. After that, the slope becomes much gentler, and you can continue climbing at a more leisurely pace toward the summit.... read more

A beautiful climb that starts off steep right away in the woods and remains challenging even as you pass the first houses. After that, the slope becomes much gentler, and you can continue climbing at a more leisurely pace toward the summit.

Mooie beklimming die in het bos meteen stevig van start gaat en ook tussen de eerste huizen nog pittig blijft. Daarna wordt de helling een stuk vriendelijker en kun je rustiger verder klimmen richting de top.

Nice climb, the section through the forest is quite steep and remains so when you get to the first houses. The second part of the climb is considerably easier. The road surface through the forest was fine (despite the indication here that it is a bad road surface). There are some stones and such though, I would be less keen to descend it.

Mooie beklimming, het stuk door het bos is behoorlijk steil en dat blijft zo als je bij de eerste huizen komt. Het tweede deel van de klim is aanzienlijk makkelijker. Het wegdek door het bos was prima (ondanks dat hier wordt aangegeven dat het een slecht wegdek is). Er liggen wel wat stenen enzo, ik zou hem minder graag afdalen.
