Despite the busier road, this is a nice gradual climb in a wooded area. Nice separate cycle path. Climb drags on for a nice long time.... read more

Despite the busier road, this is a nice gradual climb in a wooded area. Nice separate cycle path. Climb drags on for a nice long time.

Ondanks de drukkere weg is dit een mooie geleidelijke klim in een bosrijke omgeving. Mooi afzonderlijk fietspad. Klim trekt lekker lang door.

In terms of gradient, it rises quite nicely and steadily but the cycle path is a bit bumpy at times because of tree roots and is largely right next to a fairly busy road. There are nicer ways to ride out of Apeldoorn.

Qua helling loopt deze best aardig en gestaag op maar het fietspad is vanwege boomwortels soms wat hobbelig en ligt grotendeels pal langs een best drukke weg. Er zijn leukere manieren om Apeldoorn uit te rijden.

J.C. Wilslaan. Clear cycle path along busy road. Always an annoying way out of Apeldoorn.

J.C. Wilslaan. Vrijliggend fietspad langs drukke weg. Altijd een vervelende manier om Apeldoorn uit te komen.

Je begint bij Berg en bos en rijdt richting Julianatoren.

In the summer it's a bit crowded, in the spring or fall early in the day or not at all and then, once you've crossed the Soerense weg, there's some chance of wildlife. From the roundabout you can go right back down along the Julianatoren. Pay attention if it is open, because then there are people on the bike path.

JC Wilslaan, Soerenseweg and Amersfoortse weg are nice to combine as a kind of climbing training, possibly with Aardhuisweg attached.

In de zomer wat druk, in het voor- of najaar vroeg op de dag of juist later helemaal niet en dan, zodra je de Soerense weg bent overgestoken, wat kans op wild. Vanaf de rotonde kun je rechts weer naar beneden, langs de Julianatoren. Wel ff opletten als dat open is, want dan lopen er mensen op het fietspad.

JC Wilslaan, Soerenseweg en Amersfoortse weg zijn als een soort klimtraining wel lekker te combineren, evt met Aardhuisweg eraan vast.

Well, certainly not recommended to drive around. But ideal if you live nearby to use it regularly as a test. Really suitable for a short distance on the big plate to drive into the acid, especially at the end of a ride. Can be very busy in summer with tourists or visitors Apenheul.

Tsja, zeker geen aanrader om voor om te rijden. Maar wel ideaal als je vlakbij woont om regelmatig te gebruiken als test. Echt geschikt om je over korte afstand op de grote plaat in het zuur te rijden, zeker aan het einde van een rit. Kan zomers erg druk zijn met toeristen of bezoekers Apenheul.

This is one of those climbs that is much more fun down than up. That seems obvious, but it is not. I can think of climbs where it is the other way round. But to the point: you are cycling along a major road, so cars whiz by and you feel like you are not making any headway, while your heart rate is rising. After all, it is climbing 5％, which of course does not bother the cars. At the end, you come to a roundabout and you can, whichever way you go, keep on climbing. No reward at all. An unsatisfactory climb, as far as I am concerned.

Dit is een van die beklimmingen die omlaag veel leuker is dan omhoog. Dat lijkt een open deur, maar is het niet. Ik kan namelijk ook beklimmingen bedenken waar het andersom is. Maar terzake: je fietst hier langs een grote weg, dus auto's zoeven voorbij en voor je gevoel schiet het voor geen meter op terwijl je wel je hartslag flink omhoog ziet gaan. Want ja, het stijgt toch 5％, waar die auto's natuurlijk geen last van hebben. Op het eind kom je bij een rotonde en mag je, welke kant je ook opgaat, lekker doorgaan met klimmen. Totaal geen beloning dus. Een onbevredigende klim, wat mij betreft.
