This is the last stretch of the Let de Stigter trail, which as a whole is definitely recommended (Not so much for the inclines but for the scenery and the often twisty trail. Can be crowded with "less attentive cyclists" though). Again, this section is a fine gravel path which runs through beautiful scenery. Nice views to the right in the first section. In the beginning a zigzag fence which is still manageable by bike. Not so with the swing gate at the end, which forces you to dismount... read more

This is the last stretch of the Let de Stigter trail, which as a whole is definitely recommended (Not so much for the inclines but for the scenery and the often twisty trail. Can be crowded with "less attentive cyclists" though). Again, this section is a fine gravel path which runs through beautiful scenery. Nice views to the right in the first section. In the beginning a zigzag fence which is still manageable by bike. Not so with the swing gate at the end, which forces you to dismount - a consequence of the beautiful nature you cycle through.

Dit is het laatste stuk van het Let de Stigterpad, die als geheel zeker aan raden is (Niet zozeer voor de hellingen maar wel voor de omgeving en het vaak bochtige parcours. Kan wel druk zijn met "minder oplettende fietsers"). Ook dit gedeelte is een prima gravelpad wat door een mooie omgeving loopt. Leuk uitzicht naar rechts in het eerste stuk. In het begin een zigzaghekje wat fietsend nog goed te doen is. Dat geldt niet voor het klaphekje op het eind die tot afstappen dwingt - een gevolg van de fraaie natuur waar je doorheen fietst.

A very nice alternative to the Elsterberg from Elst via the Veenendaalsestraatweg. Lovely quiet climb that starts where the Driftweg turns into the Let de Stigterpad. From there on, it goes over excellent gravel.
Nowhere does it get really hard, but the bends and the surroundings still give the feeling of a real climb. The only drawback is the small gate at the top, which makes it necessary to get off the pedals for a while...

Een heel leuk alternatief voor de Elsterberg vanuit Elst via de Veenendaalsestraatweg. Heerlijk rustige klim die begint waar de Driftweg overgaat in het Let de Stigterpad. Vanaf daar gaat het ook over prima te fietsen gravel.
Het wordt nergens echt zwaar, maar de bochten en de omgeving geven toch het gevoel van een echte klim. Enige jammere is het hekje op de top, waardoor je toch even van de trappers af moet...
