De iets kortere maar ook steilere variant van deze atypische klim op het Kempens plateau.Dit omdat deze helling zich niet op een natuurlijke helling maar op een industrieterrein op een oude mijnterrill bevindt.Na een steil aanvangsstukje ziet men meteen links zeer overzichtelijk de doodlopende top opdoemen.
