One of the short connecting roads between Vrakelbergweg and Eys. If you know the way handy to get to your destination as quickly as possible without too much detour. From Elkenrade you can see the transmitter mast at the top of the Eyserbosweg and descend in that direction first. If you pedal briskly, you can also get to the top on the big plate. ... read more

Een van de korte verbindingsweggetjes tussen Vrakelbergweg en Eys. Als je de weg weet handig om zo snel mogelijk naar je bestemming te gaan zonder al teveel omrijden. Vanuit Elkenrade zie je de zendmast bovenaan de Eyserbosweg staan en daal je eerst in die richting af. Als je flink doortrap kan je op de grote plaat ook weer boven komen. Op de kruising aan het einde mogelijkheden om naar Eyserheide, Eys of Wijlre te rijden.

In an area with such steep climbs, this slope is just an undulation in a road that is only used to get from A to B. It is a good idea to do this one after the Dikkebelikweg to gain extra altitude. It is handy to do it after the Dikkebelikweg for extra height meters and then descend via the Moorheide (nice view).

When descending this slope you notice that it was steeper than you would have estimated during the climb.

In een gebied met zulke knallers van klimmen is dit hellinkje slechts een glooiing in een weg die alleen wordt gebruikt om van A naar B te komen. Wel handig om deze na de Dikkebuiksweg te doen voor extra hoogtemeters en daarna via de Moorheide (mooi uitzicht) weer af te dalen.

Bij het afdalen via deze helling merk je toch wel dat deze steiler was dan je bij de klim zou inschatten.
