Short route starts at the little bridge over the Hermeton, tributary of the Great Meuse. Curvy past the church firmly irregular uphill through the village. The habitation reduces so that you end up in the forest. Towards the end, you emerge between the trees, the road flattens out and you end up between the fields on a wide plateau with a view of the Meuse valley.... read more

Short route starts at the little bridge over the Hermeton, tributary of the Great Meuse. Curvy past the church firmly irregular uphill through the village. The habitation reduces so that you end up in the forest.

Korte route start aan het brugje over de Hermeton, zijrivier van de grote Maas. Bochtig langs de kerk stevig onregelmatig bergop het dorp door. De bewoning verminderd zodat je uiteindelijk in het bos terecht komt. Naar het einde toe kom je tussen de bomen uit, wordt het vlakker en eindig je tussen de velden op een weids plateau met vergezicht over de Maasvallei.

A pleasant ascent from the Meuse. The route starts in a built-up area of houses, then once you reach the top, the route leads you through fields. It's also a Cotacol, no. 369

Agréable ascension, à partir de la Meuse. le début se fait dans une zone bâtie constituée de maisons, puis une fois en haut, on circule au milieu des champs. C'est également un Cotacol, le n°369

Had a holiday home on this slope. Can't estimate how it is with the racing bike, because it wasn't with us, but with the folding bike it was quite tough. The first kilometre is doable (although it starts steeply in the village centre, and you cannot see what is coming after that bend, but fortunately those are very merciful hectometres). The second kilometre is a lot harder, but also more beautiful, because you leave the houses behind you. The last kilometre is spent enjoying beautiful views at moderate percentages. Apart from a stately farmhouse at some distance from the summit, you do this in all desolation.

Hadden een vakantiehuisje op deze helling. Kan niet inschatten hoe het met de koersfiets is, want die was niet mee, maar met de plooifiets was het best pittig. De eerste kilometer is goed doenbaar (het begint weliswaar steil in het dorpscentrum, en je ziet niet wat er na die bocht komt, maar dat blijken gelukkig zeer genadige hectometers). De tweede kilometer is een stuk lastiger, maar ook mooier, want je laat de huizen achter je. De laatste kilometer is het aan gematigde percentages genieten van mooie vergezichten. Afgezien van een statige boerderij op enige afstand van de top, doe je dat in alle verlatenheid. (waarneming april 2021)
