Baraque Michel (from Trois Marets)
With 10 km of steady climbing, this is one of the longest efforts you’ll find in Belgium. It kicks off in Bévercé with a few winding turns before you settle into the long, straight climb up to Baraque Michel. The gradient stays gentle, but you’ll still notch about 330 meters of elevation. At the top, you’re rewarded with a fast, flowing drop into Eupen.
Just be mindful. Most of the climb sticks to the main road. Traffic can be close at times since the cycle path runs next to the main road, so stay sharp.
