This climb is located along the very busy, and noisy North-South connection that has been keeping the political authorities in Limburg asleep for decades and will undoubtedly continue to do so for some time.Possibly one day a tunnelling project will take place here that will completely change the current situation. There is, of course, a cycle path.This traffic artery makes a steep dip downwards pretty much in the middle between Houthalen and Helchteren, creating a slope in both directions.This ... read more

This climb is located along the very busy, and noisy North-South connection that has been keeping the political authorities in Limburg asleep for decades and will undoubtedly continue to do so for some time.Possibly one day a tunnelling project will take place here that will completely change the current situation. There is, of course, a cycle path.This traffic artery makes a steep dip downwards pretty much in the middle between Houthalen and Helchteren, creating a slope in both directions.This is the slightly steeper version of the two.Certainly not a goal in itself but rather a connecting road.

Deze klim ligt langs de zeer drukke, en luidruchtige Noord-Zuidverbinding die al decennialang de politieke overheden in Limburg hun slaap kost en dit ongetwijfeld nog wel een tijdje zal doen.Mogelijks zou hier ooit een ondertunneling gebeuren waardoor de huidige situatie compleet zal veranderen. Er is uiteraard wel een fietspad.Deze verkeersader maakt zowat in het midden tussen Houthalen en Helchteren een stevige duik naar beneden waardoor er in beide richtingen een helling ontstaat.Deze is de iets steilere versie van de twee.Zeker geen doel op zich maar eerder een verbindingsweg.
