Kurze Steigung die man kaum wahrnimmt, mit schöner Landschaft und einer engen, aber guten Straße

If you drive from Ubachsberg towards Simpelveld, this climb starts on a side road on the edge of the built-up area. Is an excellent short runner that never gets really steep. At the end it is possible to turn left and descend to Simpelveld or turn right and climb a bit past the Vrouwenheide windmill to Mingersborg.

Als je vanuit Ubachsberg richting Simpelveld rijdt begint deze klim op een zijweg aan de rand van de bebouwde kom. Is een prima korte loper die op 50 meter na met 3% nooit echt steil wordt. Bij de eerste splitsing mogelijkheid om linksaf af te dalen naar Simpelveld of rechts aan te houden en nog stukje langs de molen van Vrouwenheide naar Mingersborg te klimmen.

An easy, short but very nice climb with beautiful views. This climb really gives you the feeling that you are going over a col. From Ubachsberg (there it already climbs a bit) enter the Veeweg, which runs slightly upwards. After the bend to the left you see the "col" in front of you and don't forget to look backwards where you have a nice view on Heerlen. After the "col"a beautiful view unfolds to Germany (that's why you have the feeling you are going over a ridge). Here right up towards the mill where the view on the left always stays present.

Climbing technical of course not much, but this road is too beautiful to leave and is also located in an area (between Simpelveld and Wijlre) which is totally unknown but can offer a lot of climbing fun on deserted roads

Een makkelijke, korte maar wel een heel mooi klimmetje met fraaie uitzichten. Deze klim geeft ook echt het gevoel dat je over een "col" heen gaat. Vanuit Ubachsberg (daar klimt het al een beetje) de Veeweg in, die lichtjes omhoog loopt. Na de bocht naar links zie je de "col" voor je en vergeet niet schuin naar achteren te kijken waar een fraai uitzicht op Heerlen is. Na de "col" ontvouwt zich een prachtig uitzicht tot Duitsland aan toe (daarom heb je ook het gevoel dat je over een kam heen gaat). Hier rechts omhoog richting de molen waarbij het uitzicht op links steeds aanwezig blijft.

Klimtechnisch natuurlijk niet veel soeps, maar dit weggetje is te mooi om te laten liggen en ligt ook midden in een gebied (tussen Simpelveld en Wijlre) wat totaal niet bekend is maar héél veel klimplezier op uitgestorven weggetjes kan bieden
