Long climb that starts relaxed in a nice residential area and after the car park turns into a fine concrete bike path that runs for kilometres through nature - consisting of beautiful forests and moors. Plenty of bends and variation in percentages where nowhere does it get difficult - but the length and numerous inclines definitely make themselves felt.... read more

Lange beklimming die relaxed begin in een fraaie woonwijk en na de parkeerplaats overgaat in een prima betonfietspad die kilometerslang door de natuur - bestaande uit mooie bossen en heidevelden - loopt. Lekker veel bochten en variatie in percentages waarbij het nergens moeilijk wordt - maar de lengte en de talloze hellinkjes laten zich zeker voelen.

Beautiful long cycle path parallel to the "normal" ascent of Zijpenberg. Start in the pretty habitation of Velp and you head to the top of the Posbank. No spectacular gradients, but it really goes up.

Fraai lang fietspad evenwijdig aan de "normale" beklimming van de Zijpenberg. Begin in de fraaie bewoning van Velp en je gaat naar de bovenkant van de Posbank. Geen spectaculaire stijgingspercentages, maar het gaat wel echt omhoog.

This is a nice route to do once if you want to do some gentle endurance training. It is nowhere very exciting but the route is especially beautiful in spring/summer.

Dit is een mooie route om eens te doen als je een rustige duurtraining wil doen. Het is nergens heel erg spannend maar de route is vooral in de lente/zomer mooi.

Lovely, not very exciting climb in terms of percentages, where you can constantly enjoy the surroundings. Got up nice and early today (9am) and hardly saw any other road users. I did see an abandoned Scottish Highlander. I can understand that cyclists who hardly ever cycle here don't make this their first choice, but if you cycle here more often it makes a nice change and the height meters add up.

Heerlijke, qua percentages niet zo heel spannende klim, waar je echt constant van de omgeving kunt genieten. Vandaag lekker vroeg op gegaan (9 uur) en nagenoeg geen andere weggebruikers tegengekomen. Wel een verlaten Schotse Hooglander. Ik begrijp wel dat fietsers die hier bijna niet fietsen deze niet als eerste keuze hebben, maar als je hier vaker rijdt us het een mooie afwisseling en de hoogtemeters tikken ook aan.
