One of the many slopes from Genk-Centrum. This one always runs along busy roads, without a free bike path.

Eén van de vele hellingen vanuit Genk-Centrum. Deze loopt wel steeds langs drukke wegen, zonder vrij fietspad

This slope is located right in the centre of Genk and used to be the annual warm-up after barely 1 km of the Genk-Heinsberg-Genk cycling tour classic, which is well known in Limburg.At the foot there is a beautiful church on the left, after which the slope climbs gently with a right turn to a roundabout, after which it gently dies out. Because of the numerous slopes in the area, this road is likely to be used mainly as a transit route.

Deze helling bevindt zich pal in het centrum van Genk en was in het verleden jaarlijks na nauwelijks 1 kilometer de opwarmer van de in Limburg bekende wielertoeristenklassieker Genk-Heinsberg-Genk.Aan de voet bevindt er zich aan de linkerkant een fraaie kerk waarna het met een rechtse bocht tot aan een rotonde gemoedelijk klimt waarna de helling zachtjes uitdooft. Omwille van de talrijke hellingen in de buurt is de kans groot dat men deze weg vooral als doorgangsweg zal gebruiken.
