Je kan het begin van de klim o.a. bereiken door de afdaling van Val de Berwinne. De meeste stijging zit aan het begin en einde van de klim. Het tussendeel is prima te doen en loopt lekker. Afwisselend rij je tussen de huizen of in open landschap.

A longer climb with a dual character. The first part starts in a beautiful valley and rises nicely. The rise continues (more quietly) between the first houses but then follows a boring section with little rise and between houses and through an industrial area. Then you go back into the green and you have very nice views to the right. The last piece rises again a little harder until the T-junction at the end. Good asphalt. Because of the beautiful beginning and the beautiful views in the last part still three stars.

Een langere klim met een tweeledig karakter. Het eerste deel begint in een mooi dal en stijgt lekker. De stijging blijft (rustiger) doorlopen tussen de eerste huizen maar daarna volgt een saai gedeelte met weinig stijging en tussen huizen en door een bedrijventerrein. Daarna ga je het groen weer in en heb je zeer fraai uitzicht aan de rechterkant. Het laatste stuk stijgt weer wat harder tot de T-splitsing op het eind. Goed asfalt. Vanwege het mooie begin en de fraaie uitzichten in het laatste deel toch drie sterren.

Nice rolling climb. Because it is also a part of a through road, it doesn't feel like a defined climb but more like a road that happens to rise. At the top you notice that your heart rate thinks differently.

Mooie rollende klim. Doordat het ook een stuk doorgaande weg is, voelt het niet echt als een afgebakende beklimming maar eerder als een weg die toevallig stijgt. Bovenaan merk je dat je hartslag daar anders over denkt.
