Nice climb, with some stretches of 15%. Of which 8km was very good tarmac and 2km bad. That's from the big car park just before where the climb drops and then rises again. So +/- 3.5km below the summit. Cycled in the rain and I did not find the descent dangerous anywhere as long as you brake in between and get the speed out regularly... read more

Mooie klim, met sommige stukken van 15%. Waarvan 8km heel goed asfalt en 2km slecht. Dat is vanaf de grote parkeerplaats net voor waar de klim daalt en vervolgens weer stijgt. Zo +/- 3.5 km onder de top.

Heb gefietst in de regen en de afdaling vond ik nergens gevaarlijk zolang je tussentijds remt en de snelheid er regelmatig uit haalt
