More of a climb for the adventurous than for the asphalt riders because especially the second part has bad asphalt. Moreover, after the climb, the tarmac ends and the road continues as unpaved road/path. The first section, on the main road, has partly poor asphalt and a very limited ascent. At the sign "dangerous crossroads" turn right into a small road that is easily overlooked. Here the percentage goes up immediately but it remains doable. After the right-hand bend, the end point is soon visible, although it is difficult to determine the highest point. At the top, unfortunately, there is little view, but when descending on the climbing track, there is a nice view of the valley. If your bike can handle it, nice to take it.
Meer een klim voor de avonturiers dan voor de asfaltridders want vooral het tweede deel heeft slecht asfalt. Bovendien loopt het asfalt na de klim dood en gaat de weg als onverharde weg / pad verder. Het eerste deel, over de hoofdweg heeft deels matig asfalt en stijgt zeer beperkt. Bij het bord "gevaarlijke kruising" rechtsaf, een weggetje dat je zo over het hoofd ziet in. Hier gaat het percentage meteen flink omhoog maar het blijft goed te doen. Na de bocht naar rechts is het eindpunt al snel zichtbaar al is het hoogste punt moeilijk te bepalen. Bovenin helaas weinig uitzicht, maar al afdalend over het klimtraject wel mooi uitzicht over het dal. Als je fiets het aankan wel leuk om even mee te pakken.
