The devil is 'm in the tail! The first one-and-a-half kilometres you can just paddle through beautiful countryside. Beautiful meadows to your left and no crowds. As you ride between the cottages, the steep part comes. You meander up a road quite steeply with some bends, lovely haha. Here some rural houses and a nice narrow road to complete it. Very nice climb!

Scenically a particularly pleasant climb that also follows very quiet roads. In Rondehaie you turn left and immediately right and there it goes steeply uphill - and holds on nicely for a while. The poor tarmac doesn't bother you too much given the pace and you have to be prepared for the beautiful views.

Quiet climb on a rural road. Once you cross the village and the road gets much narrower and worse, the real work starts. Surely higher percentages in the bends than indicated here. At the top look back, here you have a beautiful view over the Hautes Fagnes and in good weather you can see Signal de Botrange!

Nice, but only do it if you are well trained. First part is good, but the last kilometer is murder, horribly steep parts and bad road surface

Absolutely a favorite of mine, the first time I rode it I was totally surprised because I had no idea what to expect. You hope every time you are there but then it goes on again. No traffic and therefore a topper.

Very nice climb. Don't be put off by the comments about the tarmac. Uphill is perfectly doable.
Strange that this slope is so unknown, because it really is a beauty. The second half is the toughest part, but also the most beautiful.

The beginning of the climb is very nice and the scenery is beautiful everywhere. A stop at the top to take a picture and enjoy the view is definitely a good tip.
Until Rondehaie it is a pleasure. Only for me the last part is much too steep and the road surface is much too bad.

Nice and quiet climb, from rondehaie on it gets really steep and winding (and worse road surface). You can find it on strava as juslenville- sommet tancremont. Only 220 people have cycled up this climb, that's how unknown it is.

You don't need special gearing for Nouveau Monde. The slope isn't long or steep enough to require much shifting down. You can conquer this climb on power alone. However, a compact gearing system with a smallest front chainring of 34 and largest rear sprocket of 28 or 30 is always nice if you enjoy cycling uphill. This helps maintain a smooth cadence.
