After the descent through the forest on poor road surface, this climb immediately begins with a tough opening section on rough asphalt. Then the gradient gradually decreases and you can roll on more leisurely.

Na de afdaling door het bos op slecht wegdek begint deze klim meteen met een stevig openingsstuk over ruw asfalt. Daarna neemt de helling geleidelijk af en kun je rustiger doorrollen.

From Mur du Couvent, you descend Rue Grétry on a deplorably bad road through the forest. At the bottom of the valley after passing the Rau de Bolland stream, the climb begins on a still poor road surface. The first 250 metres are the steepest. Then the next 250 metres flatten out further. After that, it is rolling out to the summit on Sarémont.

Vanaf Mur du Couvent daal je over een erbarmelijk slechte weg door het bos Rue Grétry af. Onder in het dal na passage van de beek Rau de Bolland begint de klim over een nog steeds slecht wegdek. De eerste 250 meter zijn het steilst. Daarna vlakken de volgende 250 meter veder af. Daarna is het uitbollen tot aan de top op Sarémont.
