Beautiful, still quite steep climb. And very nice scenery with a fine descent after the top.

Mooie, toch nog best steile klim. En een erg mooie omgeving met een fijne afdaling na de top.

Nice road surface, quiet surroundings - also nice to take as a descent. Never really difficult - at the top there is a nice view over that area though.

Mooi wegdek, rustige omgeving - ook mooi om als afdaling te nemen. Nooit echt lastig - boven is er wel een mooi uitzicht over die omgeving.

This meanders uphill. Does get steep at times. Not super tough but definitely worth mentioning. You cycle mostly through open and green surroundings, it's normally pretty quiet although at the bottom you may sometimes encounter a truck or tractor at the farm. When you get to the top, you often get some extra wind.

Deze slingert zich naar boven. Wordt wel af en toe steil. Niet super zwaar maar zeker het vermelden waard. Je fietst grotendeels door open en groene omgeving, het is er normaal vrij rustig al kan je onderaan soms een vrachtwagen of tractor tegen komen aan de boerderij. Als je boven komt, krijg je vaak nog wat extra last door de wind.

Narrow street winding up to the top of the hill. No real views here, but some steep percentages at certain points.

Smal straatje dat naar de top van de heuvel omhoog kronkelt. Niet echt vergezichten hier, maar toch wel stevige percentages op bepaalde stukjes.
