Beautiful climb. I would never have discovered this one without climbfinder. The climb starts with the ascent of the Van Borsselenweg, where the percentages reach 7％. Halfway up the Van Borsselenweg, you take a sharp (almost perpendicular) turn to the left, and immediately you find yourself in the middle of nature, on a typical concrete path through the woods, as there are many of these on the Veluwe. As for the climb itself, it does not amount to much after you leave the Van Borsselenweg and ... read more

Very pretty route. The first part with the higher percentages runs through a beautiful park landscape. Then you turn left into the forest through which a relatively flat cycle path winds beautifully. At the end there is a small rise.

Heel fraaie route. Het eerste deel met de hogere percentages loopt door een mooi parklandschap. Daarna ga je linksaf het bos in waar een relatief vlak fietspad fraai doorheen slingert. Op het eind nog even een kleine stijging.

Halfway up the Van Borsselenweg, you take a sharp (almost perpendicular) turn to the left, and immediately you find yourself in the middle of nature, on a typical concrete path through the woods, as there are many of these on the Veluwe. As for the climb itself, it does not amount to much after you leave the Van Borsselenweg and enter the concrete path. Nevertheless, this is definitely recommended if you regularly cycle in this area.

Prachtige klim. Deze zou ik nooit ontdekt hebben zonder climbfinder. De klim start met de opgang van de Van Borsselenweg, waar de percentages oplopen tot 7％. Halverwege de Van Borsselenweg neem je een scherpe (bijna haakse) bocht naar links, en onmiddelijk kom je midden in de natuur terecht, op een typisch betonpad door de bossen, zoals deze er vele zijn op de Veluwe. Wat de klim zelf betreft, stelt dit niet zo veel meer voor nadat je de Van Borsselenweg hebt verlaten en het betonpad bent op gereden. Desalniettemin is dit zeker een aanrader als je regelmatig in deze omgeving fietst.
