Very difficult climb due to constantly changing percentages. Road surface is also moderate. Everything is compensated by the beautiful scenery and the fact that you are all alone.

Hele moeilijke klim door de constant wisselende percentages. Wegdek is ook matig. Alles wordt gecompenseerd door de prachtige omgeving en het feit dat je helemaal alleen bent.
