Nice to do and beautiful surroundings with partial views of the beautiful Hageland. The start is actually confusing because the street sign says Ganzepoel! And it is half hidden behind a house but it is on a refuge. You can hardly call this climb a climb because nowhere it goes up more than 4%. In the beginning it is the steepest and most fun because a narrow road goes up in the beautiful nature. At the top follow the road to the right and it even goes downhill very slightly. After 200 meters... read more

Foot of the slope is indeed in a street with street sign "Ganzepoel" while maps show "Hollestraat".
At the foot of the slope, the road surface has come up a bit, so some attention there.
The first few hundred metres go up a bit between the trees. Afterwards it can hardly be called a slope and you can continue on the big gear. Then it looks like a piece of false flat, which also bolts reasonably well. At the top there are really nice views of the surroundings.

Voet van de helling ligt inderdaad in een straat met straatnaambord "Ganzepoel", terwijl op kaarten "Hollestraat" staat.
Aan de voet van de helling is het wegdek wat naar boven gekomen, dus daar wat opletten.
De eerste honderden meters gaan wat omhoog tussen de bomen. Nadien is het amper een helling te noemen en kan je op het groot verzet verder. Lijkt dan op een stuk vals plat, wat ook nog redelijk goed bolt. Bovenaan echt wel een mooi uitzicht op de omgeving.

In the beginning it is the steepest and most fun because a narrow road goes up in the beautiful nature. At the top follow the road to the right and it even goes downhill very slightly. After 200 meters take the first left is now a wider road and after 200 meters turn left again.

Leuk om te doen en mooie omgeving met gedeeltelijk zicht op het prachtige Hageland. De start is eigenlijk verwarrend want er staat op het straatnaambord Ganzepoel ! En ligt half verscholen achter een huis maar het is wel aan een vluchtheuvel . Je kan deze klim moeilijk een klim noemen want nergens loopt het meer dan 4% omhoog.
Het is in het begin het steilste en leukste want een smal weggetje loopt in de mooie natuur naar boven . Boven rechts de weg volgen en loopt hier zelfs heel licht bergaf. Na 200 meter de eerste baan links nemen is nu een bredere weg en na 200 meter terug linksaf.
