Nice punchy one to try and tackle, but honestly it's way too busy to recommend: you're spot on in the middle of town for most of it and it's quite a trafficked road, so not the best conditions...... read more

When you go up at the hotel you think for a moment 'what am I doing' then you are already almost there and it is just teeth together and bang.

Als je bij het hotel omhoog gaat denk je even 'wat doe ik' dan ben je er al bijna en is het gewoon tandjes op elkaar en knallen.

This short climb is the fastest way to drive from Gulpen to Wijlre. The climb starts as soon as you turn onto the Dorpsstraat from the Rijksweg. The steepest part is about halfway down the Dorpsstraat. Then it flattens out and you have reached the top at Hoeve De Burgh, where you descend to Wijlre. When you are almost at the top, there is an opportunity to enter the Groeneweg. Via the buildings you can then reach the start of the climb of the Beversberg.

Via deze korte klim rij je het snelst van Gulpen naar Wijlre. De klim start zodra je vanaf de Rijksweg de Dorpsstraat oprijdt. Het steilste deel ligt ongeveer halfverwege de Dorpsstraat. Daarna vlakt het af en heb je t.h.v. Hoeve De Burgh de top bereikt en ga je afdalen naar Wijlre. Als je bijna boven bent is er mogelijkheid de Groeneweg in te rijden. Via de bebouwing kan je dan naar het begin van de klim van de Beversberg.

You can see this climb nicely from the center of Gulpen but after the bend it is quickly done with the climbing fun. Very busy further.

Deze klim zie je mooi opdoemen vanuit het centrum van Gulpen maar na de bocht is het al snel gedaan met de klimpret. je bent dus met een paar keer trappen wel boven. Erg druk verder.
