Steep thing. Descending this climb is not recommended. The road surface is moderate and bad in some parts. Didn't see any other traffic on this climb, only a local who rode me off completely.... read more

Steil ding. Het is niet aan te raden om deze klim af te dalen. Het wegdek is matig en op sommige delen slecht. Verder geen verkeer gezien op deze klim, alleen een local die mij er volledig af reed.

One of the more difficult climbs in the area. To get to the foot you will have to cross the provincial road for a while, this is definitely worth it!
The road surface is good the first part, it becomes less so once the climb into the forest really starts. In the forest, be prepared for stretches above 15％. Every now and then and beautiful views to your right if you have the nerve for it!

Een van de moeilijkere beklimmingen uit de omgeving. Om aan de voet te komen zul je even over de provinciale weg moeten, dit is zeker de moeite waard!
Het wegdek is het eerste gedeelte goed, het wordt minder zodra de klim in het bos echt begint maar alsnog prima te doen op de racefiets. In het bos kan je je borst nat maken voor stroken van boven de 15％. Zo nu en dan een prachtig uitzicht aan je rechterkant als je tenminste de puf hiervoor hebt!
