Hagaard is short and immediately firm. You are right into the steep section and have little time to really get into your rhythm. After that, it's a quick run out to the top, but it's still a short effort where you have to get over yourself for a while.... read more

Hagaard is kort en meteen stevig. Je zit direct in het steile stuk en hebt weinig tijd om echt in je ritme te komen. Daarna is het snel uitlopen naar boven, maar het blijft een korte inspanning waar je je even moet overzetten.

Nice climb through the forest on a perfectly paved road. Not very long, but steep. The overhanging vegetation during summer made it seem almost dark.

Mooie klim door het bos over een perfect geasfalteerde weg. Niet heel lang, maar wel steil. Door de overhangende begroeiing tijdens de zomer leek het wel bijna donker.

Not long at all, but very steep! The road, which is in good condition and not very busy, helps you to get through without too much trouble.
Well worth the diversions

Pas long du tout mais très raide ! La route en bon état et peu fréquentée aide à passer sans trop d'encombres
Mérite le détour

Short but nasty steep, shifting gears well beforehand. The road is of good quality, which does help somewhat. Nice green surroundings too.

Kort maar smerig steil, goed schakelen tevoren. De weg is van goede kwaliteit, dat helpt wel iets. Ook een mooie groene omgeving.

Famous from the Brabantse Pijl, where in 2023 Ben Healy posted a splitting demarrage.

I wouldn't call my attempt splitting. Make no mistake: the TV images make this slope look much less steep than it really is. The asphalt is of excellent quality, which helps enormously. Furthermore, you are well sheltered from wind or other weather elements by the trees, so only the legs need to speak as you ride up the Hagaard.

Beroemd van de Brabantse Pijl, waar in 2023 Ben Healy een splijtende demarrage plaatste.

Splijtend zou ik mijn poging niet noemen. Vergis je niet: de tv-beelden doen deze helling véél minder steil lijken dan deze in werkelijkheid is. Het asfalt is van uitstekende kwaliteit, en dat helpt enorm. Verder ben je door de bomen goed beschut van wind of andere weerselementen, zodat enkel de benen hoeven te spreken als je de Hagaard oprijdt.

Indeed, this climb is part of the final circuit of the Flèche brabançonne, and it is quite difficult, especially if you ride it hard. Nevertheless, it seems to me much less difficult than the Speelberg via the Moerenhoutsstraat, which runs parallel to it, especially since it has become paved.

Effectivement, cette côte fait partie du circuit final de la Flèche brabançonne, et elle est assez difficile, surtout si on la prend à fond. Elle me paraît néanmoins nettement moins difficile que le Speelberg par la Moerenhoutsstraat, qui lui est parallèle, surtout depuis que celui-ci est devenue pavé.

Such a short little baby, what could be so hard about that? Well, it is disappointing. It is very steep. The typical example of what a calf biter is. Nice narrow road by the way. Tip for those who descend to Overijse: watch how you drive, because some streets have cobblestones. And a narrow road that goes down quite steeply on cobblestones is never a pleasure, especially when they are wet.

Zo'n kort prutske, wat kan daar nu lastig aan zijn? Wel, hij valt tegen. Hij is enorm steil. Hét typevoorbeeld van wat een kuitenbijter is. Leuke smalle weg trouwens. Tip voor zij die naar Overijse afdalen: let op hoe je rijdt, want er liggen op sommige straten kasseien. En een smalle weg die tamelijk steil naar beneden gaat op kasseien is nooit een pretje, zeker niet als ze nat liggen.

nice little hill, quite short but steep in the woods that I like to climb when I train in the area.

petite côte sympa, assez courte mais raide dans les bois que j'aime grimper lors de mes entrainements dans la région.

Nice short but steep climb.
Very pleasant in the undergrowth and known by all for being one of the difficulties of the Brabant Arrow

Belle montée courte mais pentue.
Très agréable en sous bois et connue de tous pour être l une des difficulté de la flèche Brabançonne

Nice short climb on quiet road. Road is a bit hidden between the trees, so you cycle in the shade on a hot day.

Leuke korte klim op rustige weg. Weg is wat verstopt tussen de bomen, zodat je in de schaduw fietst op een warme dag.

Can be done in one go, but difficult to keep up the pace till the end. Nice climb to cross to Tombeek.

In één keer op te knallen, maar moeilijk tempo tot het einde vast te houden. Tof klimmeke om door te steken naar Tombeek.

Nice quiet climb between the trees, definitely worth it. Feel like Matthieu van der Poel when you go up here because this is also part of the route of the Brabantste pijl.

leuk rustig klimmetje tussen de bomen, zeker de moeite waard. Voel jezelf als matthieu van der poel als je hier omhoog knalt omdat deze natuurlijk ook in de route van de brabantste pijl zit

Short but steep, it is a nice little climb to do, u wont take long but it's a small holloway street that doesn't get alot of cars and it's a relief in the summer because it has shadow throughout.
