La première partie s’effectue sur la grande route de Bailleul qui est hélas très fréquentée. La seconde partie sur la route de la montagne est par contre très agréable. Elle offre même un court passage un peu salé à 10%. En haut, un bunker de la Ligne Maginot qui ressemble à une boîte à lettres.
Ce n’est pas le plus beau bunker du coin. Ce n’est pas non plus la plus belle côte du coin.
Ce n’est pas le plus beau des monts du coin.
À propos, on prononce « Boskèpe »… Enfin, peu ou prou.
This is a two-stage climb. You first cycle up a bit along the main road, which is not too bad most of the time. After a small bit of flat/downhill, you have to cross the road on the left and enter a small street with a chapel. This last stretch can be quite tricky, especially if you get out of your rhythm by having to cross. The tarmac is good everywhere. During the climb itself, the views are not fantastic but you do arrive at the top in a beautiful setting and there are many options for a nice descent.
Dit is een beklimming in twee trappen. Je fietst eerste een stuk omhoog langs de hoofdweg, wat meestal nog mee valt. Na een klein stukje plat/bergaf moet je links de weg oversteken en kom je in een klein straatje met een kapel. Dit laatste stuk kan vrij lastig zijn, vooral als je uit je ritme raakt door te moeten oversteken. Het asfalt is overal goed. Tijdens de klim zelf is het uitzicht niet fantastisch maar je komt boven wel in een mooie omgeving en er zijn veel opties voor een mooie afdaling.
