A bit of a peculiar col this climb . The first 4 km you follow the D24 which barely climbs until at some point you turn diagonally left. You ride through a beautiful forest with nice tarmac and completely in the shade . After 2 km the road surface becomes rougher and steeper to change a bit further into a bumpy asphalt layer with lots of gravel and actually not recommended for a road bike but in front of me was a group of French riders and they rode their road bikes just uphill.

A bit of a peculiar col this climb . The first 4 km you follow the D24 which barely climbs until at some point you turn diagonally left. You ride through a beautiful forest with nice tarmac and completely in the shade . After 2 km the road surface becomes rougher and steeper to change a bit further into a bumpy asphalt layer with lots of gravel and actually not recommended for a road bike but in front of me was a group of French riders and they rode their road bikes just uphill. A gravel bike or mountain bike is better here. Due to its length, poor road surface and varying gradients, it is quite tough. The tougher part of this climb is clearly in the middle section. Because it contains the occasional section of descent or vkak, this col is harder than the average suggests. Well 100％ shade and sometimes dark in the forest.

Een beetje eigenaardige col deze beklimming . De eerste 4 km volg je de D24 die amper stijgt tot je op een bepaald moment schuin links de afslag neemt. Je rijdt door een prachtig bos met mooi asfalt en helemaal in de schaduw . Na 2 km wordt het wegdek ruwer en steiler om wat verder over te gaan in een hobelige asfaltlaag met veel grind en eigenlijk niet aan te raden voor een wegfiets maar voor mij was een groepje Franse renners en die reden met hun wegfietsen gewoon naar boven. Een gravelfiets of mountainbike is beter hier. Door zijn lengte, slecht wegdek en afwisselende stijgingspercentages best redelijk zwaar. Het zwaardere deel van deze klim ligt duidelijk in het middenstuk. Doordat er af en toe een stuk afdaling of vkak in zit is deze col zwaarder dan het gemiddelde doet vermoeden. Wel 100％ schaduw en soms wel donker in het bos.
