As regards the climb nothing special; a straight road up with good tarmac. The surroundings are cool though, it's quite amusing to cycle up in the complete quietness of the forest. After the small bend, the steepness is reasonable for Veluwe-climbs, but nothing to be scared of ;) Once at the top, you can only use gravel paths, which by the way are perfectly doable on a racing bike....read more

Actually, the climb starts right after the barrier because there you have the first hump right away - before the second and then the top follow. The road - with good tarmac - is straight but the slopes give nice variation.
Eigenlijk begint de klim al direct na de slagboom want daar heb je meteen een eerste bultje - voordat de tweede en daarna de top volgen. De weg - met goed asfalt - is recht maar de hellinkjes geven leuke variatie.

Nice quiet road through the Crown Estates. Little up and down. The cycle path into which the road turns is often a nice shell path through a beautiful forest and ends in Elspeet.
Leuke stille weg door de Kroondomeinen. Beetje op en neer. Het fietspad waarin de weg overgaat is vaak een aardig schelpenpad door een mooi bos en eindigt in Elspeet.

Qua klim niet bijzonder; een rechte weg omhoog met goed asfalt. De omgeving is wel gaaf, het is best vermakelijk om in de complete rust in het bos omhoog te fietsen. Na het kleine knikje is de steiltegraad redelijk voor Veluwe-klimmetjes, maar niets om van te schrikken ;) Eenmaal boven kun je alleen gravelpaden op, die overigens prima te doen zijn op de racefiets.
