The first part is nothing special: you drive up between the houses of Gembes. Once you turn diagonally right into a smaller country road (with perfect tarmac, by the way) it becomes enjoyable. The gradients keep coming at you, but you are in the middle of open fields!... read more

Het eerste deel is niet zo bijzonder: je rijdt tussen de huizen van Gembes naar boven. Eenmaal je schuin rechts een kleiner landwegje inrijdt (met perfect asfalt trouwens) wordt het genieten. De stijgingspercentages blijven op je af komen, maar je zit wel midden tussen de open velden!

Quite a pleasant climb, on a beautiful road in the middle of fields. Very little traffic, great views from the summit or on the descent.
It's also a cotacol

Ascension plutôt agréable, sur une belle route au milieu des champs. Très peu de trafic, belle vue au sommet ou lors de la descente.
C'est aussi un cotacol
