The Gellenberg is located between the N2 ( state highway between Leuven and Diest ) and the center of Lubbeek. If you leave the N2 to go to Lubbeek, halfway you suddenly encounter a rather steep ascending part that you feel more than it seems. Unfortunately, it is a busy road but the bike path is in good condition during the ascending part but closer to Lubbeek center it is not so good. But juust before Lubbeek you can turn right on the Waasberg which seems to me a nice narrow ascending road an... read more

The Gellenberg is located between the N2 ( state highway between Leuven and Diest ) and the center of Lubbeek.
If you leave the N2 to go to Lubbeek, halfway you suddenly encounter a rather steep ascending part that you feel more than it seems. Unfortunately, it is a busy road but the bike path is in good condition during the ascending part but closer to Lubbeek center it is not so good. But juust before Lubbeek you can turn right on the Waasberg which seems to me a nice narrow ascending road and is almost 1 km long but never really steep.

De Gellenberg is gelegen tussen de N2 ( staatsbaan tussen Leuven en Diest ) en het centrum van Lubbeek.
Als je de N2 verlaat om richting Lubbeek te rijden kom je halfweg plotseling een best sterk oplopend stuk tegen dat je meer voelt dan het lijkt. Spijtig genoeg is het een drukke baan maar het fietspad is in goede staat tijdens het oplopende deel maar dichter bij Lubbeek centrum is het minder goed. Maar juust voor Lubbeek kan je rechtsaf de Waasberg nemen wat mij een mooi leuk smal oplopend weggetje lijkt en bijna 1 km lang is maar nooit echt steil.
