This is the Mur de Huy—the wall that defines La Flèche Wallonne. It’s steep, relentless, and it doesn’t ease up. With an average of 11.7% and pitches reaching 19%, you’ll want to be in your lowest gear right from the start.
The road twists up through the suburbs of Huy, passing seven chapels on the way to the top at the citadel. Look down and you’ll spot ‘Huy’ painted on the tarmac nearly every meter.
