Lovely wide cycle path straight through the Meinweg nature reserve. There are many gravel roads in the area, but this cycle path is perfectly passable on a road bike. 3 small hills over a decent climb length for this area. You cycle alternately between forest and heathland.

Mooi breed aangelegd fietspad recht door natuurgebied de Meinweg. In de omgeving zijn veel gravelwegen, maar dit fietspad is perfect begaanbaar met de racefiets. 3 kleine heuvels over een behoorlijke klimlengte voor deze omgeving. Je fietst afwisselend tussen bos en heide.

Fine bike path but never really climbs. Done during a round of Meinweg.

Prima fietspad maar echt klimmen is het nooit. Gedaan tijdens een rondje Meinweg.

Beautiful cycling street, where you can bang on the power. Occasionally it levels off, or descends briefly. This climb is a bit reminiscent of the Veluwe hills. Very beautiful scenery and only other cyclists. You ride on to Germany, where it is equally beautiful. Really worth the detour.

Prachtige fietsstraat, waar je lekker op de macht op kan knallen. Af en toe vlakt het af, of daalt het even. Deze klim doet een beetje denken aan de Veluwse heuveltjes. Erg mooie omgeving en alleen andere fietsers. Je rijdt lekker door naar Duitsland, waar het evenzo mooi is. Echt de moeite om er voor om te rijden.

A great route along a road-like path where cars are prohibited. The path initially leads through a beautiful forest and up to a plateau, which offers views of the surrounding area. The ascent itself is only noticeable for the first kilometre, as it becomes more plateau-like as you go on and you are distracted by the beautiful surroundings.

Tolle Strecke über einen straßenähnlichen Weg, auf dem Autos verboten sind. Der Weg führt zunächst durch einen schönen Wald und führt auf ein Plateau, welches Ausblicke in die nähere Umgebung bietet. Den Anstieg selber spührt man nur auf dem ersten Kilometer, da es im weiteren Verlauf eher plateauähnlich wird, bzw. man von der schönen Umgebung abgelengt wird.

Beautiful area with hardly any traffic and only nature. The climbs come in quick succession and when you reach the top, you have a beautiful view of the nature. Certainly the most beautiful climb in this region

Mooi gebied met vrijwel geen verkeer en alleen maar natuur. De klimmetjes komen snel achter elkaar en boven aangekomen heb je een mooi uitzicht op de natuur. In deze regio zeker de mooiste klim

Beautiful, long climb in 3. Nice tarmac, you see the climb right in front of you. Beautiful nature reserve.

Prachtige, lange klim in 3-en. Mooi asfalt, je ziet de klim recht voor je liggen. Mooi natuurgebied.

Beautiful road through the nature, specially made for the cyclist. Strongly changing course, sometimes also slightly descending. You regularly encounter wildlife here.

Prachtig weggetje door de natuur, speciaal gemaakt voor de fietser. Sterk wisselend verloop, soms ook licht dalend. Je komt hier regelmatig wild tegen.

Beautiful bicycle street through national park the Meinweg. When I cycled along here early in the morning I saw three wild boars near a small pond. They ran away when they saw me and then an even larger group crossed the road in front of me and ran up with me....

Prachtige fietsstraat door nationaal park de Meinweg. Toen ik hier 's ochtends vroeg langs fietste zag ik een drietal wilde zwijnen bij een vennetje, die wegrenden toen ze me zagen en vervolgens met een nog grotere groep voor me de weg over staken en een stukje met me mee omhoog renden....

Mooie glooiende weg met venijnige klimmetjes. Loopt nog een stuk door richting Duitsland over vers asfalt.
