Begindeel vanuit centrum is hetzelfde recht klimmende fietspad als de route naar Gasthuisberg. Na het onderdoor fietsen van de Leuvense ring, rechts haarspeldbocht gewijs afdraaien direct gevolgd door linkse bocht om tussen de bomen naast de ring rechtdoor te klimmen tot rondpunt voor het Lemmensinstituut.
In de zomer kunnen door de open ramen viool of pianomuziek je vergezellen want het eindpunt is bekende "School of Arts".
