Departing from Europalaan, the ascent is gentle with a sort of hairpin bend, after which you can see the summit looming in the distance.This slope has quite a bit of cycling history attached to it.For example, it has been the setting for a few arrivals in the EnecoTour, the worldtour race currently known as the Renewitour.This Genk climb will probably also be included as a transit route in a cycling route rather than being a goal in itself.... read more

Vertrekkend vanuit de Europalaan gaat het met een soort haarspeldbocht meteen gezapig naar boven.Hierna ziet men de top in de verte al vrij snel voor zich opdoemen.Aan deze helling kleeft behoorlijk wat wielergeschiedenis.Zo was ze o.a. een paar maal het decor van een aankomst in de EnecoTour, de worldtourwedstrijd die momenteel onder de naam RenewiTour door het leven gaat.Ook deze Genkse klim zal wellicht vooral eerder als een doorgangsweg in een fietstraject opgenomen worden dan een doel op zich zijn.
