Short but characterful wall in the old town of Thuin: first a short run-in, then brisk on the cobblestones where the pace immediately breaks. Rough road surface, narrow streets and on top a nice view over the Sambre valley and the belfry make it a typical Walloon "mini-classic".... read more

Korte maar karaktervolle muur in het oude stadje Thuin: eerst even inlopen, daarna stevig op de kasseien waar het tempo meteen breekt. Ruw wegdek, smalle straatjes en bovenop een mooi zicht over de Sambervallei en het belfort maken het een typische Waalse “mini-klassieker”.

A pleasant climb, which is particularly difficult because of the bad cobbles on the second half, which is also the prettiest with the view to the left and the belfry in the background.

Montée agréable, qui est surtout difficile par les mauvais pavés sur la deuxième moitié, qui est aussi la plus jolie avec la vue à gauche et le beffroi en arrière-plan

It's good to know that the pros often pass through the mur de Thuin, a cobbled path, and you're rewarded with a beautiful view of the Belfry and the Sambre valley.

C'est bien de se dire que les pros passent souvent dans le mur de Thuin, chemin en gros pavés, on est récompensé avec une belle vue du Beffroi et sur la vallée de la Sambre

To be honest, this climb is not very good. It climbs well at the start and then you get to the wall, but the cobbles really prevent you from accelerating because they're in such poor condition.

Franchement cette montée est bof. Elle monte bien au début puis on arrive dans le mur mais les pavés empêchent vraiment d'accélérer car il sont en très mauvais état.

Nice, not too tough, cobbled climb. View from village square is worth a stopover.

Leuke, niet al te zware, kasseiklim. Uitzicht vanop dorpsplein is tussenstopje waard.
