Short climb behind the Kemmelberg through the forest. Smooth start but with another punchy final section that just surprises you. Beautiful, quiet surroundings and good asphalt, especially a nice extra after the Kemmel.... read more

Korte klim achter de Kemmelberg door het bos. Glooiend begin maar met nog een pittig slotstuk dat je net verrast. Mooie, rustige omgeving en goed asfalt, vooral een leuk extraatje na de Kemmel.

I got lost looking for the way to Mont Kemmel...
But, as it climbs a bit everywhere around here, I got there. If I've understood correctly, it's the Baneberg, but a lot of Berg...
In any case, the road is nice and you meet a lot of cyclists. It's short and intense.

Je me suis perdu en cherchant le chemin du Mont Kemmel…
Mais, comme ça grimpe un peu partout par ici, je suis arrivé là. Si j’ai bien compris, c’est le Baneberg, mais, beaucoup de Berg…
En tout cas, la route est sympathique et on croise beaucoup de cyclistes. C’est court et intense.

Behind Kemmelberg through the forest. Very pleasant scenery, nice tarmac. Quite steep but short.

Achter de Kemmelberg doorheen het bos. Landschappelijk heel aangenaam, mooi asfalt. Vrij steil maar kort.

A side of the Kemmelberg that is not as steep and not as high. Helped by the nice tarmac, this becomes a nice interlude.

Een zijkant van de Kemmelberg die niet zo steil en niet zo hoog gaat. Geholpen door het mooie asfalt wordt dit een leuk tussendoortje.

When you think the climb is done, you get a little nip at the end. Sheltered under the trees of the Kemmelberg and nice tarmac.

Wanneer je denkt dat de klim gedaan is, krijg je toch nog even een kneepje op het einde. Beschut onder de bomen van de Kemmelberg en mooi asfalt.
