Probably the biggest difference in altitude in Brussels: From the bottom of the Senne valley to Altitude Hundred. Several alternatives are possible from the bottom of St-Gilles/Forest to the top of Forest with more or less traffic (I recommend to take the Avenue de Fierlant and then the Chaussée de Bruxelles, the Avenue Massenet and finally the Avenue Gabriel Fauré). The hardest part is, whatever the route, after the Square Lainé roundabout.... read more

The climb is cool but a bit difficult when there's traffic.

La monté est cool mais un peu difficile quand il y a du trafic

Quite a pleasant climb, especially in the second part with a little passage above 10% which is a good reminder of the total difference in altitude.

Montée assez agréable, surtout dans la deuxième partie avec un petit passage au dessus de 10% qui rappelle bien le dénivelé total.

The first part is a bit nasty in traffic, but once you pass the Avenue du Roi roundabout, it's pretty quiet.

The gradual slope makes the exercise not too brutal, and the absence of traffic lights (except just before the finale of Altitude 100) makes the progression fluid.

La première partie est un peu infecte en cas de trafic, mais une fois passé le rond point de l'avenue du Roi, c'est plutôt calme.

La pente progressive rend l'exercice pas trop brutal, et l'absence de feux (sauf juste avant le final de l'Altitude 100) rend la progression fluide.

Sans doute le plus gros dénivelé possible à Bruxelles : Du fond de la vallée de la Senne à l'Altitude Cent. Plusieurs alternatives sont possible depuis le bas de St-Gilles/Forest vers le haut de Forest avec plus ou moins de trafic (je recommande de prendre plutôt l'avenue de Fierlant puis la Chaussée de Bruxelles, l'Avenue Massenet et enfin l'Avenue Gabriel Fauré). La partie la plus dure se trouve, quel que soit l'itinéraire, après le rond-point du Square Lainé.
