Typical West Flanders runner: wide, fairly constant and nowhere really steep. Ideal for tempo running or intervals. Feels simple, but if you pull it through from bottom to top it can still creep into the legs.

Typische West-Vlaamse loper: breed, vrij constant en nergens echt steil. Ideaal om tempo te rijden of intervals te doen. Voelt simpel, maar als je hem doortrekt van beneden tot boven kan hij toch in de benen kruipen.

Well known climb that you can go up and down from different directions. Along this side it's pretty ok. Don't start too wild. You start the climb with a small descent and can take some speed but bon. Be careful anyway. Very nice!

Goed gekende klim die je van verschillende kanten kunt op en afrijden. Langs deze kant is hij best ok. Niet te wild starten. Je start de klim met een kleine afdaling en kunt zo wat snelheid nemen maar bon. Toch maar voorzichtig zijn. Zeer leuk!

Very nice climb, and several descents possible afterwards. It's a wide road. But not the most busy road in the area, so all in all quite quiet. Good asphalt. Perfect to have a blast.

Hele leuke klim, en verschillende afdalingen mogelijk nadien. Het is een brede weg. Maar niet de meest drukke baan van de streek, al bij al vrij rustig dus. Goeie asfalt. Perfect om eens te knallen.

Start with a run-up and you pop nicely uphill. Ideal in an interval workout. Don't start too brightly, as it continues for a long time anyway.

Begin met een aanloop en je knalt lekker naar boven. Ideaal in een intervaltraining. Begin niet te fel, want hij blijft toch lang doorlopen.

Original Tiegem, runs smoothly uphill. Regular traffic on this road, though.

Originele Tiegem, loopt vlot naar boven. Wel regelmatig verkeer op deze weg.

Indeed as below not that difficult, but fun climb when you are in the area.

Inderdaad zoals hieronder niet zo moeilijk, maar wel leuke klim wanneer je in de buurt bent.

"If you get ridden off here, you have to stop cycling", says Naesen - if you push on from the foot, it is still seriously disappointing to persevere to the top. Still, not to be underestimated.

"Als je hier wordt afgereden, moet je stoppen met fietsen", zegt Naesen - als je van aan de voet doortrekt, valt het toch serieus tegen om vol te houden tot boven. Toch niet te onderschatten.

Nice runner , not so steep and regular and a slope that appears in some races anyway.So worth climbing once !

Mooie loper , niet zo steil en regelmatig en een helling die toch in enkele wedstrijden voorkomt.Dus de moeite waard om eens te beklimmen !

Not difficult but fun to do. Good tarmac, consistent percentages. Forest on the left and views in the descent afterwards.

Niet moeilijk maar leuk om te doen. Goed asfalt, constante percentages. Bos links en in de afdaling achteraf uitzicht.

Cool level climb. Good road surface. Nice descent via Bomstraat. Neerstraat (other side of crossroads near church) is an ideal warm-up.

Toffe gelijkoplopende klim. Goed wegdek. Leuke afdaling via Bomstraat. De Neerstraat (andere kant van kruispunt t.h.v. kerk) is een ideale opwarmer.

This one is popular thanks to its name, but doesn't really represent that much. However, saving for the heavier pustules more towards the South is often the message.

Deze is populair dankzij zijn naam, maar stelt eigenlijk niet zo gek veel voor. Sparen voor de zwaardere puisten meer richting het Zuiden is echter vaak de boodschap.

As a cycling tourist from the Flemish Ardennes, the Tiegem is a runner, once fun to do but there more difficult slopes!

Als wielertoerist uit de Vlaamse Ardennen is de Tiegem een loper, eens leuk om te doen maar er moeilijker hellingen!

A rather treacherous straight line because its gradients increase gradually. Easy to swallow if you are in shape. Less easy if it's at the end of the run...

Ligne droite assez traître car ses pourcentages augmentent graduellement. S'avale facilement si on est en forme. Moins facilement si ça se trouve en fin de sortie…

Running climb that also has its name from the Flemish spring classics.
Delicious climbing percentages that never really get steep.

Lopende klim die ook weer zijn naamsbekendheid heeft van de Vlaamse voorjaarsklassiekers.
Heerlijke klimpercentages die nooit echt steil worden.

Not a very nice climb, but a nice runner that gets steeper towards the end. If you want to enjoy the beautiful views after reaching the top, you can descend via the traffic free Borrestraat.

Geen al te mooie klim, maar wel een leuke loper die naar het einde toe wat steiler wordt. Wil je na het bereiken van de top nog even van de mooie vergezichten genieten, dan kan je via de verkeersluwe Borrestraat afdalen.

Ideal mountain for climbing training with the big plateau, not too steep but long enough. Perfect for a dozen times in a row to ride up and down the mountain, as an extra you can take the Warandedreef behind the Vossenhol, there is a steep piece to test the smaller gear.

Ideaal bergje voor klimtraining met de grote plateau, niet overdreven steil en wel lang genoeg. Perfect om een tiental keer na elkaar de berg op en af te rijden, als extraatje kan men er de Warandedreef achter het Vossenhol bijnemen, daar bevindt zich een steil stukje om het kleinere verzet eens uit te testen.

If you watch the course regularly, this one is a must-do with the mushroom and the unmistakable trees along the way. With the descent in your legs you're already well on your way and then it's a matter of finding a good rotation to keep up your effort up to the top.

Als je regelmatig naar de koers kijkt is deze toch wel een must-do met de paddenstoel en de onmiskenbare bomen langs de weg. Met de afdaling in de benen ben je al een eind op weg en dan is het kwestie van een goede rotatie te vinden om je inspanning tot boven vol te houden.

A real runner, ideal to use up the last bits of energy you have in your legs after a ride in the Flemish Ardennes.
Also nice to pop up during a shorter ride in the area.
It is also a nice climb through a forest and along a park. Road can be busy.

Een echte loper, ideaal om de laatste restjes energie die je in je benen hebt na een ritje in de Vlaamse Ardennen op te gebruiken.
Ook leuk om naar boven te knallen tijdens een korter ritje in de omgeving.
Het is ook een mooie klim door een bos en langs een park. Weg kan wel druk zijn.
