Very long stretch of false flat, though with often beautiful scenery. Just before the rest house there is a little kink in it. Not difficult but a runner. Especially a connection between e.g. Molenberg and the cobbled sections around Mater.... read more

Heel lang stuk vals plat, wel met vaak mooi landschap. Vlak voor het rusthuis zit er even een knikje in. Niet moeilijk maar een loper. Vooral een verbindingsstuk tussen bvb de Molenberg en de kasseistroken rond Mater.
