Nice slightly more gradual climb along the "backside" (north side) of the Lousberg. The first part of the climb has bad road surface but after the posts blocking car traffic you climb further over a nice wide road with good asphalt. On your right side you have a nice view of the Tivoli stadium of Allemania Aachen. The climb meanders through the forest and at the hairpin bend js have a nice view to the right towards the Netherlands. Then at the top of the plateau you join the other asce... read more

Nice slightly more gradual climb along the "backside" (north side) of the Lousberg. The first part of the climb has bad road surface but after the posts blocking car traffic you climb further over a nice wide road with good asphalt. On your right side you have a nice view of the Tivoli stadium of Allemania Aachen. The climb meanders through the forest and at the hairpin bend js have a nice view to the right towards the Netherlands. Then at the top of the plateau you join the other ascent and cycle on to the former water tower. Unfortunately, the restaurant at the top is only available for rent, so for nice views of Aachen you have to look between the trees a bit.

Mooie iets geleidelijkere beklimming langs de 'achterzijde' (noordzijde) van de Lousberg. Het eerste deel van de klim heeft slecht wegdek maar na de paaltjes die het autoverkeer tegenhouden klim je verder overe een mooie brede weg met goed asfalt. Aan je rechterzijde heb je een mooi uitzicht op het Tivoli-stadion van Allemania Aachen. De klim kronkelt door het bos en bij de haarspeldbocht kun js rechts mooi uitkijken richting Nederland. Daarna sluit je bovenop het plateau aan bij de andere opgang en fiets je door naar de voormalige watertoren. Helaas is het restaurant op de top alleen nog maar af te huren, dus voor mooie uitzichten op Aachen moet je een beetje tussen de bomen doorkijken.
