An amazing climb! When we did it for the first time, we drove without a route and took the shortest track towards St-Vith. This was really disappointing! It got steeper and steeper and kept going. This one is unknown, and unloved - but completely unjustified. Road surface is very good, and behind times when you can see a bit further, a new, steeper surprise awaits.... read more

Een geweldige beklimming! Toen we deze voor de eerste keer deden, reden we zonder route en namen we de kortste baan richting Sankt-Vith. Dit viel echt tegen! Het werd steiler en steiler en bleef maar duren. Deze is onbekend, en onbemind - maar volledig onterecht. Wegdek is zeer goed, en achter keer dat je wat verder kan kijken, wacht een nieuwe, steilere verrassing.

Great climb in a forgotten area. That's because the Ardennes has many more well-known climbs, and this region is just behind them. It gets steeper and steeper as you go deeper into the forest. It still started so easily. Although steep, it is not irregular. Definitely do it if you're looking for something just outside the Ardennes.

Geweldige beklimming in een vergeten omgeving. Dat komt doordat de Ardennen veel meer bekende klimmen hebben, en deze regio er net achter ligt. Het wordt alsmaar steiler terwijl je dieper het bos in gaat. Het begon nog zo gemakkelijk. Hoewel steil, is het niet onregelmatig. Zeker doen als je iets zoekt net buiten de Ardennen.

The Bergstrasse has a nice run of about one kilometre with lighter percentages. Then it gets steeper and there is still a full kilometer of climbing to do. Once at the electricity box you can catch your breath through the forest towards Emmels.

Until recently I was only used to the hills in the south of Limburg. Always short enough not to break down completely. The Bergstrasse in Recht was my first 'real climb' since I moved to this region.

The first time up with 39/28 was an unforgettable experience. 10 minutes of exhaustion. Since then I bought a compact crankset which certainly helps, but if you are not very fresh it remains very heavy. I often pass by Recht and always think twice if I shouldn't ride a little detour...

De Bergstrasse heeft een lekkere aanloop van een kleine kilometer met lichtere percentages. Daarna wordt het steeds stijler en moet er nog een volle kilometer flink geklommen worden. Eens boven bij het elektriciteitskastje kun je door het bos richting Emmels op adem komen.

Tot voor kort was ik enkel de Zuid Limburgse heuvels gewend. Altijd kort genoeg om niet helemaal kapot te gaan. De Bergstrasse in Recht was mijn eerste 'echte klim', sinds ik naar deze streek verhuisd ben.

De eerste keer omhoog met 39/28 was een onvergetelijke ervaring. 10 minuten vol afgezien. Sindsdien een compact crankstel gekocht wat zeker helpt, maar als je niet heel fris bent blijft het erg zwaar. Ik kom vaak langs Recht en denk toch altijd twee keer na of ik niet beter een stukje om kan rijden...
