Nice climb, first through a green residential area and then along a gravel bike path into the beautiful forest. Little sensational in terms of gradient. It does get a little steeper on the last bit (after the wild grid) but then you are talking about a few metres.... read more

Nice climb, first through a green residential area and then along a gravel bike path into the beautiful forest. Little sensational in terms of gradient. It does get a little steeper on the last bit (after the wild grid) but then you are talking about a few metres.

Leuke klim, eerst door een groene woonwijk en daarna over een gravelfietspad het mooie bos in. Qua helling weinig opzienbarends. Wel wordt het op het laatste stukje (na het wildrooster) nog even iets steiler maar dan praat je over een paar meter.

An excellent alternative to the always busy cycle path along Amersfoortseweg to climb the Zonheuvel from Doorn. You have to go through Doorn (at least, if you come from Leersum), but you get something in return.
Be careful when you come to a sort of junction with the Beatrixlaan: it is straight ahead here. A little later you enter a narrow bike path that winds through the forest. There are some nasty tree roots in the path...
Via a right-angled bend, you cycle to Amersfoortseweg and then you take the last few metres of the Zonheuvel.

Echt een uitstekend alternatief voor het altijd drukke fietspad langs de Amersfoortseweg om de Zonheuvel vanuit Doorn te beklimmen. Je moet wel even een stukje door Doorn (tenminste, als je vanaf Leersum komt), maar je krijgt er ook wat voor terug.
Wel even opletten als je op een soort van kruising met de Beatrixlaan komt: het is hier rechtdoor. Even later ga je een smal fietspad op dat mooi door het bos kronkelt. Zitten wel wat vervelende boomwortels in het pad...
Via een haakse bocht naar rechts fiets te vervolgens naar de Amersfoortseweg om dan nog even de laatste meters van de Zonheuvel mee te pakken.
