Beautiful climb that is indeed rather hidden, parallel to the busy N30. The first part seems to take an eternity as the road continues quite steeply only straight ahead, with imposing rock outcroppings on your left. As you bike straight ahead at the three-way intersection, the gradient becomes more pleasant and you pedal Uithoorn a stately residential neighborhood. Highly recommended to escape the city for a while!... read more

Mooie klim die inderdaad nogal verborgen ligt, parallel aan de drukke N30. Het eerste deel lijkt een eeuwigheid te duren omdat de weg flink steil alleen maar rechtuit doortrekt, met imposante rotspartijen aan je linkerhand. Als je bij de driesprong rechtdoor fietst wordt het stijgingspercentage aangenamer en peddel je Uithoorn een statige villawijk. Een absolute aanrader om stad even te ontvluchten!
