Nice climb with a moment to catch your breath at the halfway point after which it goes up some more. If you turn right at the traffic circle, it goes up a little further,... read more

Nice climb with a moment to catch your breath at the halfway point after which it goes up some more. If you turn right at the traffic circle, it goes up a little further,

Mooie beklimming met een moment om op adem te komen op de helft waarna het nog weer wat verder omhoog loopt. Als je bij de rotonde naar rechts gaat, dan loopt het nog een klein stukje verder omhoog,

Just nice cycling on a wide road, no narrow roads for a while. There are certainly nicer climbs in the area, though.

Gewoon lekker fietsen over een brede weg, even geen smalle weggetjes. Er zijn zeker mooiere klimmetjes in de omgeving, dat wel.

Long climb but a little bit boring. The gradients are not too bad but the length is mainly what you need to rely on.

Lang klimmetje maar wel een klein beetje saai. De hellingspercentages vallen mee maar de lengte is vooral dat waar je het van moet hebben

Climb that is fun especially in the first part as you cycle up quite a nice slope through beautiful landscape. The second part keeps going up as well (but lighter), but in terms of landscape there are much nicer alternatives. As a climb, though, it is certainly not unpleasant, especially if you don't want to cycle on narrow cycle paths.

Klim die vooral in het eerste deel leuk is omdat je dan best met een aardige helling door mooi landschap omhoog fietst. Het tweede deel blijft eveneens (maar dan wel lichter) stijgen, maar qua landschap zijn er veel mooiere alternatieven. Als klim doch zeker niet onaardig, zeker als je niet op smalle fietspaden wilt fietsen.

A nice long climb in two stages. The first is through a field where you imagine yourself in Austria, then follows a piece of flat and after that you imagine yourself in an average Dutch neighborhood, apart from the fact that the road slopes a bit more than in an average Dutch neighborhood. This climb is the most western of a whole series of roads from low to high-Oosterbeek.

Een mooie lange klim in twee trappen. De eerste is door een veld waar je je in Oostenrijk waant, dan volgt een stukje vlak en daarna waan je je in een doorsnee Hollandse wijk, los van het feit dat de weg wat meer helt dan in een doorsnee Hollandse wijk. Deze klim is de meest westelijke van een hele serie weggetjes van laag- naar hoog-Oosterbeek.
