Instead of descending towards Berendries for the 10th time and climbing it, there are nice slopes in reverse. This one is not too difficult, but in a beautiful, very peaceful setting. Nice, gradual, longer climb - highly recommended... read more

Ipv voor de 10de keer af te dalen richting Berendries en deze te beklimmen, zijn er omgekeerd ook mooie hellingen. Deze is niet te lastig, maar wel in een mooie, zeer rustige omgeving. Mooie, geleidelijke, langere klim - aanrader
