Nice and long climb over deserted roads from the bridge near Zeltingen to the B50. During the climb after the viaduct a short gravel section (very rideable) and after the climb also a gravel section after which you can descend via several asphalt roads. In Zeltingen, go straight up from the bridge. At the end turn right, sharp left and then sharp right again at a viewing platform. After that, you can just keep following the road. The first part has nice views after which you enter a side valley ... read more

Nice and long climb over deserted roads from the bridge near Zeltingen to the B50. During the climb after the viaduct a short gravel section (very rideable) and after the climb also a gravel section after which you can descend via several asphalt roads. In Zeltingen, go straight up from the bridge. At the end turn right, sharp left and then sharp right again at a viewing platform. After that, you can just keep following the road. The first part has nice views after which you enter a side valley and join the B50 after a forest. You think you're already at the top of the valley, but the road keeps on climbing. Only further on a flatter section / slight descent after which the final part of the climb begins, leading to a clear highest point.

Lekkere en lange klim over uitgestorven weggetjes vanuit de brug bij Zeltingen tot langs de B50. Tijdens de klim na het viaduct een kort gravelstuk (prima te berijden) en na de klim eveneens nog een gravelstuk waarna je via verschillende asfaltwegen af kan dalen. In Zeltingen even lekker vanaf de brug recht omhoog. Op het eind naar rechts, scherp naar links en dan bij een uitkijkplateau weer scherp naar rechts. Daarna kan je de weg gewoon blijven volgen. Het eerste deel heeft mooie uitzichten waarna je een zijdal in gaat en na een bos bij de B50 uitkomt. Je denkt dat je dan al boven bent maar de weg blijft nog vrolijk doorstijgen. Pas verderop een vlakker stuk / lichte afdaling waarna het laatste deel van de klim begint, die leidt tot een duidelijk hoogste punt.
