Climb does not represent too much if you compare other cols nearby. Last stretch is more fun than first.

Klim stelt niet al te veel voor als je andere cols in de buurt vergelijkt. Laatste stuk is leuker dan eerste.

Nice climb, 2nd stretch is already a bit trickier. You can't see very far, so you can't see how difficult and long it is. It's still disappointing here. It's not great, concrete slabs, but uphill it's not too bad. Nice climb

Leuk klimmetje, 2de stuk is al wat lastiger. Je kunt niet ver kijken, dus je kan niet zien hoe lastig en lang het nog is. Het valt hier toch nog tegen. Het bolt wel niet super, betonplaten, maar bergop valt dit nog mee. Tof klimmetje
