The nicest side of Ruidenberg. At the top is a sign with Ruidenberg and a bench to take a rest. It is a short steep kink one of the nicest climbs in the area.

De leukste kant van de Ruidenberg. Bovenop staat een bordje met Ruidenberg en een bankje om even uit te rusten. Het is een kort steil knikje één van de leukste klimmetjes in de omgeving.

The real and also the most popular side of the Ruidenberg, the percentages here are always above 3 percent and it keeps on going up. The approach is first flat, where you can look around at the beautiful fields, but when you've passed the first house on your right it's really going uphill. It goes up against 3 percent, here it is better that you save your strength for the last part. When you reach the crossroads you go straight ahead and you can start a sprint with percentages of 4 to 6 percent to the top of the Ruidenberg. A reasonably tough climb of 700 metres with an average gradient. You should definitely try this one. For me the second most difficult side of the Ruidenberg.

De echte en ook populairste kant van de Ruidenberg, de percentages blijven hier ook altijd boven de 3 procent en het blijft maar stijgen. De aanloop is eerst nog een stuk vlak, waar je nog eens rond kan kijken op de mooie velden, maar wanneer je het eerste huis hebt gepasseerd aan je rechterkant is het pas echt bergop. Het gaat tegen 3 procent omhoog, hier is het beter dat je je krachten nog even spaart voor het laatste stuk. Wanneer je dan op het kruispunt komt ga je rechtdoor en kan je nog een sprintje inzetten met percentages tegen de 4 a 6 procent naar de top van de Ruidenberg. Een redelijk pittige klim van 700 meter met een gemiddeld stijgingspercentage die ook nog redelijk zwaar is. Deze moet je zeker proberen. Voor mij de op 1 na moeilijkste kant van de Ruidenberg.
