Hidden behind the village, the first few kilometers of this route take you up a very steep initial section. This steep climb continues until you reach the second section on the main road. This second section is very open and is essentially just a long stretch until you turn off to tackle the final short stretch to the summit. The road surface is only decent on the main road. Between 0.5 and 1.5 km, there’s currently very fine gravel; I think there was a road subsidence, so this section is awaiting repair. The first section is definitely a must-try for fans of long, steep climbs.
Verborgen achter het dorpje rijdt je hier de eerste kilometers een zeer steile eerste stuk. Dit stopt niet tot je aan het tweede deel op de grote weg begint. Dit tweede deel is zeer open en eigenlijk gewoon een lange loper tot je afdraait om het laatste extra stukje tot de top te doen. Wegdek is enkel ok op de grote weg. Tussen 0,5 en 1,5km ligt momenteel zeer lichte gravel, er was volgens mij een wegverzakking waardoor dit deel op heraanleg wacht. Eerste deel zeker een aanrader voor liefhebbers van lange steile stukken.
