The slope goes up immediately, but after the bends it gets a bit more difficult, this steep part lasts for at least a few hundred meters.

At the start, Christ greeted and encouraged us.
At the finish, the traditional and unmissable water tower awaited us...
A discreet water tower, well hidden behind the trees.
The first part of the climb was solid.
You can really feel the gradients, which exceed 12%. But, it's an effort that only lasts 700 metres. The most difficult section is also the most enjoyable. After that, you ride between the houses that line this Mont Colembert. There's nothing too crazy about this mountain, but the climb is demanding, so it's interesting, and you climb in a reassuring calm.
Au départ, le Christ nous salue et nous encourage. C’est chouette d’avoir du public sur les ascensions.
À l’arrivée, le traditionnel et immanquable château d’eau nous attendait…
Un château d’eau pudique, bien caché derrière les arbres.
La première partie de la montée est solide.
On les ressent bien les pourcentages qui dépassent les 12%. Mais, c’est un effort qui ne dure que 700 mètres. La portion la plus difficile est aussi la plus agréable. Ensuite, on roule entre les maisons qui garnissent ce Mont Colembert. Rien de bien folichon sur ce mont, mais l’ascension est exigeante, donc intéressante et on monte dans un calme rassérénant.

Leuk en zeker ook lastig klimmetje over een rustige idylische weg met prima asfalt. De helling gaat gelijk goed omhoog, maar vanaf de bochtjes wordt het nog wat lastiger, dit steile stuk houdt zeker enkele honderden meters aan. Bij de afslag heb je het lastigste deel van de klim wel achter je. Nog één keer aanzetten tot de watertoren, waar je helemaal boven bent.
