I just love these little walls! This one has a special feature: it's climbed in a rather beautiful landscape... The first few hectometres are pretty solid. The mountain is beautiful. The finish is pretty too, just ahead of a hairpin bend that leads to Fournet. One drawback: there are too many cars for a wall that was designed, no-one doubts it, with cyclists in mind.... read more

Décidément, j’adore ces petits murs ! Celui-ci a une particularité : il se grimpe dans un paysage plutôt réussi…
Les premiers hectomètres sont bien solides. La montagne est belle. L’arrivée est toute jolie aussi juste devant un lacet qui mène à Fournet.
Un point noir : il y a trop de voitures pour un mur qui a été conçu, personne n’en doute, pour les cyclistes.

Climbing in 'my village' only locals know this wall. The climb is worth a detour though. Belgian steep with beautiful views of the Alps. Good to include in many nice tours around here. (Like the tour izoard for example).

Beklimming in 'mijn dorp' alleen locals kennen deze muur. De klim is een ommetje echter zeker waard. Belgisch steil met mooie uitzichten op de Alpen. Prima op te nemen in heel wat leuke rondjes hier in de buurt. (Zoals het rondje izoard bijvoorbeeld).
