Cool climb. You start with a steep descent so you are well launched for the steepest part. This is also the most open part. Then it flattens out but you cycle between the houses and then, after turning left, between the vegetation. At the top there is another view. Certainly not difficult, pleasant for those who want Flemish Ardennes feeling without doing the toughest climbs.... read more

Tof klimmetje. Je begint met een steile afdaling zodat je goed gelanceerd bent voor het steilste stuk. Dit is eveneens het meest open stuk. Daarna vlakt het wat af maar fiets je tussen de huizen en daarna, nadat je links afslaat, tussen de begroeiing. Bovenaan is er opnieuwe een uitzicht. Zeker niet lastig, aangenaam voor degenen die Vlaamse Ardennengevoel willen zonder de zwaarste klimmen te doen.

Nice, quiet climb with good tarmac, slightly spicy. In combination with the Borg field, the climb is immediately a lot longer.

Mooie, rustige beklimming met goed asfalt, licht pittig. In combinatie met het Borgveld is de klim meteen een pak langer.
