Beautiful region for cycling. Actually, this is not 1 long climb, but a number of successive climbs with some flatter bits in between. If you ride the whole route, you do rack up quite a few altimeters.... read more

Mooie streek om te fietsen. Eigenlijk is dit niet 1 lange klim, maar een aantal opeenvolgende klimmetjes met wat vlakkere stukjes tussendoor. Als je het hele traject aflegt pak je wel flink wat hoogtemeters mee.
