Fine gravel cycle path nicely through the forest. Beware though it is quite narrow and ebike oncoming traffic is remarkably often a bit skittish... read more

Prima gravel fietspad mooi door het bos. Let wel op het is vrij smal en ebike tegenliggers zijn opvallend vaak wat schrikkerig

Beautiful cycle path and a more than pleasant alternative to the busy cycle path to the Piramide. It doesn't get really steep anywhere, but you do have some great views of the beautiful landscape every now and then.

Prachtig fietspad en meer dan leuk alternatief voor het drukke fietspad naar de Piramide. Het wordt nergens echt steil, maar je hebt zo nu en dan wel prachtige doorkijkjes op het mooie landschap.

Fine alternative to the always busy Pyramide, especially if you come from the corner Doorn / Maern. Beautiful winding path through the forest where you indeed hardly notice that it goes up.
It is worth mentioning that from the moment you turn into the Maarnseweg it turns into gravel to Austerlitz, the kind that is good to do on a racing bike.

Prima alternatief voor de altijd drukke Pyramide, helemaal als je uit de hoek Doorn/Maarn komt. Fraai slingerend pad door het bos waarbij je inderdaad amper door hebt dat het omhoog gaat.
Wel het vermelden waard dat het vanaf het moment dat je de Maarnseweg op draait over gaat in gravel tot Austerlitz, wel van het soort dat goed te doen is op de racefiets.

Unexpectedly many altimeters for this beautifully situated and somewhat winding bike path. I have cycled it many times and you can feel it going up but because there are no reference points it is hard to tell how much. It's not really hard, but it's nice cycling.
In the descent on this path you did notice that you are going down by the way.

Onverwacht veel hoogtemeters voor dit fraai gelegen en enigszins slingerende fietspad. Heb deze veelvuldig gefietst en je voelt hem wel stijgen maar omdat er geen referentiepunten zijn is niet te merken hoeveel. Echt zwaar is het iig niet, maar wel mooi fietsen.
In de afdaling over dit traject merkte je trouwens wel dat je naar beneden gaat.
