Nice climb through the forest, up to the town. Good tarmac.

What others say, quite tricky percentages at times but certainly not the nicest or most beautiful climb in the region.

Wat anderen zeggen, vrij lastige percentages soms maar zeker niet de leukste of mooiste klim in de regio.

Nice route, with high percentages from the first to the second hairpin bend, after which the route flattens out steadily until the entrance to the village. In my opinion, other climbs in this region are much more worthwhile.

Nette Strecke, mit hohen Prozentsätzen von der ersten bis zur zweiten Haarnadelkurve, danach flacht die Strecke bis zum Ortseingang stetig ab. Andere Anstiege in dieser Region lohnen sich meiner Meinung nach deutlich mehr.

This climb actually starts at the stream with a short climb and then slightly false flat until just before the first hairpin. Then you see the road really going up. Between the hairpins there is a long straight which feels heavy. After the second hairpin another steep part in the forest you enter the built-up area. The piece between the houses continues to rise well and lasts quite long, but occasionally offers very nice views to the left. The top of the climb is on top of the viaduct.

Deze klim begint eigenlijk al bij de beek met een kort klimmetje en daarna licht vals plat tot vlak voor de eerste haarspeldbocht. Dan zie je de weg ook ineens echt omhoog gaan. Tussen de haarspeldbochten een lang recht stuk wat zwaar aanvoelt. Na de tweede hairpin nog een stukje steil stijgen in het bos waarna je de bebouwde kom in rijdt. Het stuk tussen de huizen blijft zo nu en dan goed stijgen en duurt best lang, maar biedt naar links zo nu en dan zeer fraaie uitzichten. De top van de klim is bovenop het viaduct.
