One of the many climbs from the Route du Val-Dieu heading south. When you start this climb, you first ride parallel to the Route du Val-Dieu for a while. The gradient here is not too bad. As soon as you've driven through the left-hand bend, you'll have to work hard up to the first house on the right-hand side of the road. The gradient is then in the double digits. After this, it flattens out considerably until you reach the village. ... read more

Eén van de vele klimmetje vanaf de Route du Val-Dieu richting het zuiden. Als je aan deze klim begint rij je eerst even parallel aan de Route du Val-Dieu. Het stijgingspercentage valt hier nog mee. Zodra je door de bocht naar links bent gereden mag je tot aan het eerste huis rechts van de weg vol aan de bak. Het stijgingspercentage zit dan in de dubbele cijfers. Hierna vlak het tot aan de tot flink af.

A short but definitely beautiful climb, both because of the scenery and the percentages. The first few metres the tarmac sucks but after that it is just good to ride. The percentages rise nicely right away. In the right-angled turn it flattens out for a while and then you have almost the whole climb ahead of you. Slightly winding, it sometimes goes up really steeply through a beautiful landscape. At the top, nice views over the whole left side.

Een korte maar zeker mooie klim, zowel door het landschap als door de percentages. De eerste meters is het asfalt waardeloos maar daarna is het gewoon goed te rijden. De percentages lopen meteen lekker op. In de haakse bocht vlakt het even af en daarna die je vrijwel de hele klim mooi voor je liggen. Lichtjes slingerend gaat het soms echt stevig door een fraai landschap omhoog. Bovenin mooie uitzichten over de hele linkerkant.

Nice climb, especially through the landscape. If you are a bit careful with your tyres, you might as well start on the street "Le Houyeu" or if you come from the top of the Holliguette via the streets "cerfontaine" and "la cour" -then you pass right under that white cross you often see in the distance.

Mooie klim, vooral door het landschap. Ben je wat zuinig op je bandjes kan je even goed op de straat "Le Houyeu" starten, of als je bv van de top van de Holliguette komt via de straten "cerfontaine" en "la cour" rijden -dan passeer je vlak onder dat wit kruis dat je vaak in de verte ziet.
