From the descent from Barl, we started this climb. On the descent towards the climb, it already looked like it was going to be a tough climb. Starting on the first fairly flat stretch, you ride straight towards the castle, and it doesn't seem too bad. But the closer you get to the castle, the tougher it gets, once in the forest the percentages shoot up rapidly. When you come out of the forest, you can already see the castle with the (finish) arch, but as soon as you pass it, as a dessert ... read more

From the descent from Barl, we started this climb. On the descent towards the climb, it already looked like it was going to be a tough climb.
Starting on the first fairly flat stretch, you ride straight towards the castle, and it doesn't seem too bad. But the closer you get to the castle, the tougher it gets, once in the forest the percentages shoot up rapidly.
When you come out of the forest, you can already see the castle with the (finish) arch, but as soon as you pass it, as a dessert there is a stretch over cobblestones before you really reach the top.

Vanuit de afdaling vanaf Barl aan deze klim begonnen. In de afdaling richting de klim leek het al een pittige klim te gaan worden.
Begonnen aan eerst eerste redelijk vlakke stuk rijd je recht op de burcht af, en lijkt het allemaal wel weer mee te vallen. Maar hoe dichter je bij de burcht komt, hoe zwaarder het wordt, eenmaal in het bos schieten de percentages rap omhoog.
Als je uit het bos komt zie je de burcht met de (finish) boog al liggen, maar zodra je deze gepasseerd bent volgt als toetje nog een stukje over kasseien voordat je echt boven bent.

Als je nog een paar meter verder door gaat, is aan de achterkant van de burcht een terrasje waar je wat kleins kan eten en rustig op adem kan komen en genieten van het uitzicht.
