Nice winding climb in 2 parts, first past the cave and finishing through Berchem forest. Nice views at the end. For those who like to go steeper and tougher, it is better to tackle this climb via the Poelkveld street.... read more

Nice winding climb in 2 parts, first past the cave and finishing through Berchem forest. Nice views at the end. For those who like to go steeper and tougher, it is better to tackle this climb via the Poelkveld street.

Mooie kronkellende klim in 2 delen, eerst langs de grot en eindigen door Berchembos. Mooi uitzicht op het einde. Voor zij die graag steiler en zwaarder gaan, kan je deze klim beter via de Poelkveldstraat aanvatten.
