One of the nicer climbs in the area. If you come from Wemmel you have first a piece downhill. Pick up speed there so you can fly over the cobblestones immediately. The low gradient allows you to do that. The second part is a bit steeper, but it's asphalted. Beautiful surroundings here which is car free. Turn left at the top for a nice view!... read more

Cycled on the return from TIlburg-Brussels-Tilburg. Not very tough in itself, but a nice climb to take in. Cobbles are very good, might as well have been called asphalt.

Op de terug vanuit TIlburg-Brussel-Tilburg gefietst. Opzich niet heel zwaar, maar een leuke beklimming om mee te nemen. Kasseien liggen er erg goed bij, had net zo goed asfalt kunnen heten.

Very nice and fun climb. The small descent before and during the climb gives your legs breathing room. Very fun to bang on.

Erg mooie en leuke klim. De kleine afdaling voor en tijdens de beklimming geven je benen ademruimte. Heel leuk om op te knallen.

Een van de leukere beklimmingen in de buurt. Als je vanuit Wemmel komt heb je eerst een stuk bergaf. Pak daar snelheid zodat je de kasseien meteen kan overvliegen. De lage hellingsgraad laat dat ook toe. Het tweede deel is iets stijler, maar geasfalteerd. Mooie omgeving hier die autoluw is. Ga boven linksaf voor een mooi uitzicht!

They are rather 2 separate climbs. Almost no traffic as the street is closed off with tractor locks. When you get to the top, you have a beautiful view on Brussels from the Heirbaan.

Het zijn eerder 2 aparte beklimmingen. Bijna geen verkeer aangezien de straat is afgesloten met tractorsluizen. Als je bovenkomt, heb je een prachtig zicht op Brussel vanaf de Heirbaan.
