Be careful when turning up that you are not past the bike path, where the climb starts (I had to turn back for a while). Steep kink, then easy walking. Paying attention before the Schilberg descent: it had rained, so it was muddy and slippery here (+ narrow and also had some oncoming traffic).... read more

Be careful when turning up that you are not past the bike path, where the climb starts (I had to turn back for a while). Steep kink, then easy walking. Paying attention before the Schilberg descent: it had rained, so it was muddy and slippery here (+ narrow and also had some oncoming traffic).

Opletten bij het opdraaien dat je niet voorbij het fietspad zit, waar de klim begint (ik moest even terugdraaien). Steil knikje, daarna rustig lopend. Opletten voor de afdaling van de Schilberg: het had geregend, dus lag het hier modderig en glad (+ smal en had ook een aantal tegenliggers).

Climb starting on the cycle path near the road cross at the junction of Hoogcruts. The first 250 metres are the steepest. Then false flat until the top of Schilberg. Is alternative to avoid the boring N598 for part of the way.

Klim die begint op het fietspad t.h.v. het wegkruis op de kruising van Hoogcruts. Aansluitend 1e weg rechtsaf Maastrichterweg. de eerste 250 meter zijn het steilst. Daarna tot aan de top van de Schilberg vals plat. Is alternatief om de saaie N598 voor een deel te vermijden.

First a tiled cycle path and then turn right into a small and nicely located road, a bit steeper at first and then it flattens out. Sometimes nice views over the left. After the side road, the spice is off but riding the climb to the end offers the option of descending left to Slenaken or turning right to the main road which skips a section of that boring road.

Eerst een tegelfietspad en daarna rechtsaf een klein en mooi gelegen weggetje in, eerst wat steiler en daarna vlakt het af. Soms leuk uitzicht over links. Na de zijweg is de pit er uit maar de klim tot het einde uitrijden biedt de mogelijkheid linksaf af te dalen naar Slenaken of rechtsaf naar de hoofdweg te gaan waarmee je een stuk van die saaie weg hebt overgeslagen.
