Nice climb, it rises gently at the start. From the moment you turn right, it gets a bit steeper. Once you've passed this, it rises slightly (after a short descent) still gradually. Good road surface. As you cycle more uphill, it gets prettier and prettier. As a descent, I would advise against this one to Chemin du Bas Mont - at the end of the descent there are cobbles, and at the speed you ride down, they are fatly disappointing.... read more

Mooie beklimming, het loopt rustig op bij aanvang. Vanaf je rechts opdraait, wordt het wat steiler. Als je dit gepasseerd bent, loopt het (na een kort stukje dalen) nog geleidelijk aan lichtjes op. Goed wegdek. Naarmate je meer naar boven fietst, wordt het mooier en mooier. Als afdaling zou ik deze naar Chemin du Bas Mont afraden - op het einde van de afdaling liggen er kasseien, en aan de snelheid dat je naar beneden rijdt, vallen die dik tegen.

Nice climb with great views at the top. There are several ways to ride up here. There is a steep section in it but nothing insurmountable.

Mooie klim met een mooi uitzicht aan de top. Er zijn verschillende manieren om hier naar boven te rijden. Er zit een steil stuk in maar niks onoverkomelijk.

A very fine climb not to be overlooked. Effort management is important. Lovely views from the summit, with some must-see sights. In the distance you can see the hill country on one side and the Flemish mountains on the other.

Très belle ascension a ne pas négliger. La gestion de l'effort est importante. Très jolie vue au sommet avec quelques curiosités a voir absolument. Au loin on peut observer, d'un côté, le pays des collines et de l'autres, les monts flamands.

The climb starts under the bridge over the A8 motorway. After about 500 metres, you leave the main road and take a narrow road where the slope is steepest. On the left, shortly before the summit, it is worth stopping to admire the calvary of Mainvault.
Nice view to the south after the summit.
Note that the Mainvault mountain contains a huge reservoir of drinking water for the ... Flanders.

La côte démarre sous le pont franchi par l'autoroute A8. Après environ 500 mètres, on quitte la nationale pour s'engager sur une petite route étroite où la pente est la plus raide. Sur la gauche, peu avant le sommet, ça vaut la peine de s'arrêter pour admirer le calvaire de Mainvault.
Belle vue vers le sud une fois le sommet franchi.
A noter que le mont de Mainvault contient un immense réservoir d'eau potable destinée à la ... Flandre.

Beautiful region, beautiful ascent because with different height difference, "the wall" towards the end it is thus necessary to keep reserves

Belle région, belle ascension car avec différent dénivelé, "le mur" vers la fin il faut donc garder des réserves
