Nice 1-kilometre climb on the road from Höngen to Süsterseel. You start on the outskirts of Höngen and then ride to the viaduct over the B-56. The first 650 metres are false flat. This is followed by the steepest part until just after the viaduct after which it flattens out again.... read more

Leuke klim van 1 kilometer op de weg van Höngen naar Süsterseel. Je start aan de rand van Höngen en rijdt dan naar het viaduct over de B-56. De eerste 650 meter is vals plat. Hierna volgt het steilste deel tot net na het viduct waarna het weer afvlakt.

Short climb in the countryside. Even shorter than indicated because the highest point is just after the viaduct, so earlier than indicated (and a bit higher too, by the way). This also makes the climb a bit steeper, there is even a little bit of spice in it because both the slope and the landscape are going up. You ride on a good bike path along a provincial road that is relatively quiet. Looking back, there is a nice view.

Kort klimmetje in het buitengebied. Zelfs korter dan aangegeven omdat het hoogste punt net na het viaduct is, dus eerder dan aangegeven (en iets hoger ook trouwens). Dat maakt de klim ook net wat steiler, er zit zelfs een beetje pit in omdat zowel het talud als het landschap omhoog loopt. Je rijdt over een goed fietspad langs een provinciale weg die relatief rustig is. Achterom kijkend aardig uitzicht.
