The slope is located along one of the busiest roads around Leuven, but the advantage here is that you ride on a bike path completely separated from the lanes for motorised traffic. At 6%, this slope never gets too steep, but I still got some firm pats here after much climbing in the nearby Schoonzicht district.... Still, I would not really recommend this slope to cycling colleagues's, as there are much nicer ones to be found around Leuven.... read more

De helling is gelegen langs één van de drukste wegen rondom Leuven, maar het voordeel is dat je hier op een fietspad rijdt dat volledig gescheiden is van de baanvakken voor gemotoriseerd verkeer.
Met 6% wordt deze helling nooit te steil, maar toch heb ik hier enkele ferme patatten gekregen na het vele klimwerk in de nabijgelegen Schoonzichtwijk....
Toch zou ik deze helling niet echt aanraden aan de fietscollega's, er zijn namelijk veel leukere exemplaren te vinden rondom Leuven.
