It was still a big construction site to cycle through in mid-October, but it is possible by bike. The climb is a pimple, but since we only have the Maeslant barrier, Beneluxtunnel and Brienenoord bridge in our region, it is fun to seek it out. Whatever Fedor also mentioned for the view on top, it's really worth it.

Het was half oktober nog een flinke bouwput waar je doorheen moest fietsen, maar het is mogelijk met de fiets. De klim is een pukkeltje, maar omdat we in onze regio alleen maar de maeslantkering, Beneluxtunnel en Brienenoordbrug hebben is het leuk om hem op te zoeken. Wat Fedor ook al benoemde voor het uitzicht bovenop is het echt wel de moeite waard.

A nice winding uphill that you can see clearly ahead of you and at the top nice views over the beach and the North Sea. It's a bit of a bike ride to get there (although you can then also take the nice stretch around the Oostvoornse Meer) but it's well worth it given its nevertheless unique location.

NB: Until October 2025, from Rotterdam, the cycle path next to the Noordzeeboulevard is closed but you are allowed to cycle left on the road along the fence. Other option (and this way you also make a round trip) is via the Prinses Maximaweg. So the climb itself remains accessible.

Een leuke slinger omhoog die je duidelijk voor je ziet liggen en op de top mooi uitzicht over het strand en de Noordzee. Het is een stukje fietsen om er te komen (al kan je dan ook het leuke traject om het Oostvoornse Meer meenemen) maar het is het zeker waard gezien de toch unieke locatie.

NB: Tot oktober 2025 is vanuit Rotterdam het fietspad naast de Noordzeeboulevard gesloten maar je mag links op de weg langs de afrastering fietsen. Andere optie (en zo maak je ook een rondje) is via de Prinses Maximaweg. De klim zelf blijft dus wel toegankelijk.

The industrial approach to this climb is rather ugly, but the view at the top over the North Sea and the dunes of Voorne and Goeree is phenomenal. The climb in itself is not much, but with a strong east-north-east wind (like today), it secretly felt quite brutal.

De industriële aanloop van deze klim is tamelijk lelijk, maar het uitzicht bovenaan over de Noordzee en de duinen van Voorne en Goeree is fenomenaal. De klim stelt op zich weinig voor, maar met een forse oost-noordoostenwind (zoals vandaag) voelde hij stiekem toch best vuig aan.

Nice little climb, a change from a tunnel, viaduct or bridge that we often have to make do with in this area. The view is beautiful when you get to the top!

Leuke kleine klim, is weer eens wat anders dan een tunnel, viaduct of brug waar we het in deze omgeving vaak mee moeten doen. Het uitzicht is prachtig als je boven bent!

Om zo toch in de buurt een klein klimmetje te kunnen voelen in de beentjes zonder helemaal weg te moeten. Deze is altijd wel even lekker om mee te nemen in het huis/tuin en keuken rondje. Vanuit de maasvlakte strand naar boven om daar even stil te mogen staan voor het uitzicht op de Noord zee
