Starts nicely on the moors (where it is still flat), but quickly goes up a bit in the forest. Fairly busy, with hikers but also often with wildlife. At the end you can take the bike path, but you can also cross over and then swing to the parking lot of the Aardhuis, which is actually nicer.... read more

Rock hard gravel road with two clean tracks (so excellent to ride), beautiful scenery and relatively quiet, Highly recommended!

Keiharde gravelweg met twee schone sporen (dus uitstekend te berijden), een prachtige omgeving en relatief gezien heerlijk rustig, Aanrader!

Wonderful gravel (doable even in semi-dry conditions on a road bike) with a drop flat approach and then a bit of an undulation until above 100 m.

Heerlijk gravelen (zelfs in semi-droge omstandigheden goed te doen op de racefiets) met een valsplatte aanloop en daarna een beetje golvend tot boven de 100 m.

Begint mooi op de hei (waar het nog vlak is), maar gaat in het bos snel wat omhoog. Redelijk druk, met wandelaars maar ook vaak met wild. Aan het eind kun je het fietspad op, maar ook oversteken en dan slingerend naar de parkeerplaats van het Aardhuis, wat eigenlijk leuker is.
