Een smal pad, dat vooral geschikt is voor de mountainbikers. Het is te doen met de racefiets, maar ik zou het niet adviseren

As mentioned earlier, a very narrow cycle path right through the green and yet alongside the motorway. Looking at your navigation you wonder, where on earth am I supposed to turn in, so narrow and tucked away does it lay. Then you turn through the green lies climbing along an excellent path for 1 kilometre before cycling back into civilisation.

Zoals eerder vermeld een heel smal fietspad dwars door het groen en toch langs de snelweg. Kijkend op je navigatie vraag je je af, waar moet ik in godsnaam in, zo smal en verscholen legt het. Vervolgens draai je door het groen ligt klimmend over een uitstekend padje 1 kilometer lang om vervolgens de bewoonde wereld weer on te fietsen.

Nice, but very narrow climb. And in the summer extra narrow because of all the vegetation along the side. Passing oncoming traffic is almost a challenge. But what a great view!
So only go on a beautiful weekday. Then this is really a must!

Leuke, maar erg smalle klim. En in de zomer extra smal vanwege alle begroeiing langs de kant. Passeren van tegenliggers is bijna een uitdaging. Maar wat een geweldig uitzicht!
Ga dus alleen op een mooie doordeweekse dag. Dan is dit echt een aanrader!

Nice climb over a narrow bike path with a hedge on one side and a fence on the other side. The latter gives a nice effect to the ride.

Leuk klimmetje over een smal fietspad met aan één kant een heg en aan de andere kant een hek en de "afgrond". Die laatste geeft wel een leuk effect aan de rit.

The Maarnse berg west is a very surprising climb. The climb goes over a very narrow bike path and is not suitable for large groups. It goes steadily up with on your left a nice view on the sand quarry.
The road surface is medium, but that makes up for it because this climb is so different from all the other climbs on the Utrechtse heuvelrug.
NB: because of the narrow nature, this side is less suitable as a descent.

De Maarnse berg west is een heel verrassend klimmetje. De klim loopt over een heel smal fietspad en is niet geschikt voor grote groepen. Het loopt gestaag omhoog met links van je een leuk uitzicht op de zandafgraving.
Het wegdek is medium, maar dat wordt goed gemaakt omdat deze klim zo anders is dan alle andere klimmetjes op Utrechtse heuvelrug.
NB: vanwege het smalle karakter is deze kant minder geschikt als afdaling.
