If you live in the area, you can do a nice interval exercise by turning right into the cycle path at the top, taking this fine descent, turning right again at the first opportunity (watch out, bad road surface), and getting back to the foot of the little climb. This climb is just short enough to flame up on the big slab and then recharge on the descent. Do this 5-6x and you'll already be at the 100 altimeters.

If you live in the area, you can do a nice interval exercise by turning right into the cycle path at the top, taking this fine descent, turning right again at the first opportunity (watch out, bad road surface), and getting back to the foot of the little climb. This climb is just short enough to flame up on the big slab and then recharge on the descent. Do this 5-6x and you'll already be at the 100 altimeters.

For the climb itself: especially don't take the cycle path on the left side of the road, the road surface on the road is slightly better and cars rarely drive there. Besides, the bike path is often crowded with e-bikers who often rush down two-wide. Once almost at the top, the best route is to turn right onto the cycle path, through the grass. After this, it's another 50m climb before (this time with good road surface) a short fast descent takes you back down.

Als je in de buurt woont, kun je een aardige intervaloefening maken door bovenaan rechts het fietspad in te slaan, deze fijne afdaling te nemen, de eerste mogelijkheid weer rechtsaf te slaan (let op, slecht wegdek), en zo weer aan de voet van het klimmetje te komen. Dit klimmetje is net kort genoeg om op de grote plaat naar boven te vlammen en je daarna weer op te laden in de afdaling. Doe dit 5 à 6x en dan zit je al aan de 100 hoogtemeters.

Voor de klim zelf: neem vooral niet het fietspad aan de linkerkant van de weg, het wegdek op de weg is iets beter en er rijden zelden auto's. Daarnaast is het fietspad vaak druk met e-bikers die zich vaak twee-breed naar beneden storten. Eenmaal bijna boven is de beste route rechtsaf het fietspad op, door het gras. Hierna is het nog 50m klimmen voordat (dit keer met goed wegdek) een korte snelle afdaling je weer naar beneden brengt.

A dragon of a climb because of the bad road surface. Both the road and the bike path have poor asphalt or even slabs. Usually I pick up this climb on the way back and go straight through instead of the 'real' climb to the right. If you are not on the way back: take especially the bike path to the right, beautiful hilly moorland on your right.

Een draak van een klim vanwege het slechte wegdek. Zowel de weg als het fietspad hebben matig asfalt of zelfs platen. Meestal pak ik deze klim op de terugweg en ga ik boven direct rechtdoor in plaats van de 'echte' klim naar rechts te pakken. Mocht je niet op de terugweg zijn: pak dan vooral het fietspad naar rechts, mooi heuvelachtig heideveldje aan je rechterhand.

If you come from the airport and want to go to Soestduinen you will pick this one up automatically. Spicier than you would expect at such's location. Before the (very tasty) descent begins, turn right for the last piece.

Als je vanaf het vliegveld komt en richting Soestduinen wilt pik je deze vanzelf mee. Pittiger dan je zou verwachten op zo'n locatie. Voordat de (heel lekkere) afdaling begint nog even naar rechts voor het laatste stukje.

Pleasant separate bike path with a long and fairly steep climb for this area.

Prettig losliggend fietspad met een voor deze omgeving lange en redelijk steile klim.
