Pithy little climb. Nice to have ridden once. If you live in the neighbourhood and don't feel like going far away, you can enjoy yourself here and keep on riding laps. You also get a lot more altimeters than when you would go to the hills. (Snijdersberg, Moorveldsberg, Slingerberg) When you leave the moorveldsberg, you really have to be careful. At the bottom there is a sharp turn to the right with a bad view, immediately followed by a tunnel on the left where suddenly a car can come out. S... read more

Short but steep calf biter with a beautiful hairpin turn, perfect asphalt and a challenging steep section that mentally helps persevere.

Korte maar steile kuitenbijter met een prachtige haarspeldbocht, perfect asfalt en een uitdagend steil stuk dat mentaal helpt door te zetten.

Done today as the last climb of the day, and it is indeed very steep. However, you do see the end of the steep section looming in the distance very soon, which does help mentally to push on. The hairpin bend is indeed beautiful. I can imagine being shocked by the wall that looms up after the turn, because you can't see it before because of the house in the corner. Definitely recommended.

Vandaag als laatste klim van de dag gedaan, en hij is inderdaad erg steil. Wel zie je het eindpunt van het steile stuk in verte al snel opdoemen, wat mentaal wel helpt om door te zetten. De haarspeldbocht is inderdaad prachtig. Ik kan me wel voorstellen dat je na de bocht schrikt van de muur die dan opdoemt, want door het huis in de bocht zie je deze daarvoor nog niet. Zeker een aanrader.

Spicy climb from Geulle to the plateau between Moorveld and Catsop. From the village you cross the railway line and immediately turn left. You then go up a bit but from the hairpin bend the gradient shoots up very steeply until the first road on the right. Then it flattens out towards the top but the climb is actually quite long. A gem you must have ridden once.

Pittige klim vanuit Geulle naar het plateau tussen Moorveld en Catsop. Vanuit het dorp ga je de spoorlijn over en ga je gelijk linksaf. Je gaat dan al wat omhoog maar vanaf de haarspeldbocht schiet het stijgingspercentage tot de eerste weg rechts heel fors omhoog. Daarna vlakt het richting top af maar loopt de klim eigenlijk best nog lang door. Een pareltje die je een keer gereden moet hebben.

Another real calf-biter. Over really perfect tarmac, the road along the railway line is already climbing nicely. You get a nice hairpin bend and then the real climbing starts. For the next 200 metres, it keeps going up continuously by 12% / 13%. We have to hang on because it flattens out when we enter Geulle. Although the road continues to climb in the village for quite a long time.

Ook een echte kuitenbijter. Over werkelijk perfect asfalt loopt de weg langs het spoor al lekker op. Je krijgt een mooie haarspeld bocht en daarna wordt het pas echt klimmen geblazen. De volgende 200m blijft het continu met 12% / 13% stijgen. Even doorbijten want bij het binnenrijden van Geulle vlakt het af. Al blijft de weg nog wel best lang oplopen in het dorp.

Nice climb with one of the most beautiful hairpin bends in the Netherlands. Until the tunnel under the railway it is still quite relaxed. After the tunnel you see the road going up impressively, but if you think this is the hard part you will be disappointed. That is only after the hairpin where the road between some villas rises brutally. This does not last long after which the road flattens out and in the built-up area with a "kink" changes to semi-false flat. Good road surface in a mainly green environment.

Mooie klim met één van de fraaiste haarspeldbochten van Nederland. Tot de tunnel onder het spoor is het nog redelijk relaxed. Na de tunnel zie je de weg imposant omhoog gaan, maar als je denkt dat dit het zware gedeelte is dan kom je bedrogen uit. Dat is pas na de hairpin waar de weg tussen wat villa's bruut omhoog stijgt. Dit duurt niet lang waarna de weg afvlakt en in de bebouwde kom met een "knik" overgaat naar semi-vals plat. Prima wegdek in een voornamelijk groene omgeving.

A small monster in my opinion. The start is hopeful, but after the first corner that feeling is gone. It is indeed a wall that you are looking at. The suffering is not very long, but nevertheless more than spicy.

Een klein monster wat mij betreft. Het begin stemt nog hoopvol, maar na de eerste bocht is dat gevoel snel over. Inderdaad een muur waar je tegenaan kijkt. Het leed duurt niet al te lang, maar is desalniettemin meer dan pittig.

I find this a really tough climb. Feels like driving into a wall every time. Also quite busy with traffic.

Ik vind dit echt een verschrikkelijk zware klim. Voelt iedere keer weer alsof je tegen een muur rijdt. Ook vrij druk met verkeer.

So be smart and don't come thundering towards the Snijdersberg at full speed.

Pittig klimmetje. Leuk om een keer gereden te hebben. Als je in de buurt woont en geen zin hebt om ver weg te gaan, kan je je hier goed vermaken om rondjes te blijven rijden. Tevens pak je dan een stuk meer hoogtemeters dan wanneer je naar het heuvelland zou gaan. (Snijdersberg, Moorveldsberg, Slingerberg) Wanneer je de moorveldsberg afgaat, moet je echt goed oppassen. Onderaan komt namelijk een scherpe bocht naar rechts met slecht uitzicht, meteen gevolgd door een tunneltje aan de linkerkant waar plotseling een auto uit kan komen. Dus wees verstandig en kom niet met volle snelheid richting de snijdersberg gedenderd.

Nice warm-up when you drive from the middle of Limburg to the south. Approach is not so bad and a small steep piece in the middle and then flattens out

Lekkere opwarmer wanneer je van midden Limburg naar het zuiden rijd. Aanloop valt mee en een klein steil stukje in het midden en vlakt vervolgens af
