Nice side of the Hoge Blekker if you want a steep piece, the start is halfway the Zeelaan, the Fazantenparklaan to drive, you drive 150m when you take the turn to the right, the Steep road in (the name says it all), you are 100m long confronted with pieces to 12 to 13 percent. Then you take a right turn which in itself is actually flat and already about 100m later you turn left on the last part of the Hoge Blekker into the Panoramalaan.

Nice side of the Hoge Blekker if you want a steep piece, the start is halfway the Zeelaan, the Fazantenparklaan to drive, you drive 150m when you take the turn to the right, the Steep road in (the name says it all), you are 100m long confronted with pieces to 12 to 13 percent. Then you take a right turn which in itself is actually flat and already about 100m later you turn left on the last part of the Hoge Blekker into the Panoramalaan. Then it's another 200 meters until you reach the top at a percentage of 3 percent, so doable. There you'll see a nice view of the surrounding dunes. Definitely do it when you make a bike tour on the Belgian coast in the region Koksijde/Nieuwpoort/De Panne.

Leuke kant van de Hoge Blekker als je een steil stukje wilt, de start vind je door halverwege de Zeelaan, de Fazantenparklaan in te rijden, Je rijdt 150 m door wanneer je dan de bocht naar rechts pakt, de Steile weg in ( de naam zegt het al zelf), je wordt 100 m lang confronteerd met stukken tot 12 a 13 procent. Dan neem je de bocht naar rechts die op zich eigenlijk vlak is en al zon 100m later ga je linksaf het laatste deel van de Hoge Blekker op in de Panoramalaan. Het is dan nog 200 meter totdat je de top hebt bereikt aan percentages van 3 procent, te doen dus. Daar zie je een mooi uitzicht van de duinen errond. Moet je zeker doen wanneer je een fietstocht maakt aan de Belgische Kust in de regio Koksijde/Nieuwpoort/De Panne.
