This climb is lovely and you can really take it full throttle. At the end, it gets a little steeper.... read more

This climb is lovely and you can really take it full throttle. At the end, it gets a little steeper.

Deze klim ligt heerlijk en kan je echt vol gas nemen. Aan het eind wordt het iets steiler.

Largely straight road (with bike lanes) uphill so you can see the slope nicely em you can sprint uphill quite a bit. Cars sometimes drive fast here, though, so that is a bit of a drawback. Eventually you have the highest point but a bit further on there is another one (almost at the same altitude) so it is difficult to determine which is the real top (the second one). Wooded area.

Grotendeels rechte weg (met fietsstroken) omhoog zodat je mooi de helling kan zien en je flink stuk kan gaan met omhoog sprinten. Wel wordt hier door de weinige auto’s soms hard gereden dus dat is wat minder. Uiteindelijk heb je een hoogste punt maar iets verderop ligt er nog één (vrijwel op dezelfde hoogte) dus lastig te bepalen wat nu de echte top is (de tweede dus). Bosrijke omgeving.

Fine climb on a fairly quiet road. The climb starts with a short uphill section, then quite a bit of flat and then some climbing again. It can't be called really tough, but if you're doing laps on the Utrechtse heuvelrug, this will fit nicely into your route.

Prima klimmetje over een vrij rustige weg. De klim begint met een kort stukje omhoog, daarna een heel stuk vlak en daarna weer wat klimmen. Echt pittig is deze niet te noemen, maar als je rondjes aan het draaien bent op de Utrechtse heuvelrug past deze prima in je route.
