Short but sweet, good road surface but does not suggest too much.

Kort maar krachtig, goed wegdek maar stelt niet al te veel voor.

Very short and very steep. Quiet street that you can pop up by taking speed from the descent.

Heel kort en heel steil. Rustig straatje dat je op kan knallen door snelheid te nemen vanaf de afdaling.

Short but sweet is the best description I can give. First steep down then immediately steep up again. Don't start if you have doubts about your gears. Beautiful surroundings

Kort maar krachtig is de beste beschrijving die ik kan geven. Eerst steil omlaag dan direct weer steil omhoog. Niet aan beginnen als je twijfels hebt bij je versnellingen. Mooie omgeving

This side of the Spichtenberg is used by the Hermesroute. It is a surprising slope that breaks the legs even more as it comes just after a rather steep descent.

Ce versant du Spichtenberg est emprunté par la Hermesroute. Surprenant talus qui casse d'autant plus les jambes qu'il survient juste après une descente assez abrupte.
