As described earlier, easy climb at the top of Valkenburg next to an approach to the motorway. Halfway up a few extra pedal strokes to overcome a small steeper section, but mainly looking to the right to admire the natural beauty.... read more

As described earlier, easy climb at the top of Valkenburg next to an approach to the motorway. Halfway up a few extra pedal strokes to overcome a small steeper section, but mainly looking to the right to admire the natural beauty.

Zoals eerder beschreven makkelijk klimmetje aan de bovenkant van Valkenburg naast een oprit naar de snelweg. Halverwege ff een paar pedaalslagen extra om klein steiler stukkie te overwinnen, maar vooral naar rechts kijkend om het natuurschoon te aanschouwen.

If you come from the Broekhem roundabout, you will first take in a bit of the Kleversberg climb. Once you have passed under the A-79 you turn left up Vauwerberg. For the most part, the gradient is pretty tight. Only just over halfway up is there a steeper bit.

Kom je vanaf de rotonde van Broekhem dan pak je eerst al een stukje van de klim Kleversberg mee. Als je dan onder de A-79 ben doorgereden ga je linksaf de Vauwerberg op. Voor het grootste is het stijgingspercentage redelijk strak. Allen net over de helft van de klim zit een steiler stukje.

Short climb. A reasonable runner on a deserted road with one steeper section. The first few meters are cobblestones, then a game grid and then first fine asphalt which towards the end gets a little worse. You drive along the highway up and get to the left increasingly better views. Also to the rear nice view towards the viaduct.

Korte klim. Een redelijke loper over een uitgestorven weggetje met één steiler stukje. De eerste meters zijn klinkers, daarna een wildrooster en daarna eerst prima asfalt wat tegen het eind wat slechter wordt. Je rijdt langs de snelweg omhoog en krijgt naar links steeds beter uitzicht. Ook naar achteren mooi uitzicht richting het viaduct.

Nice climb. Short but powerful! Not bothered by traffic. On the left side of the road there is the driveway to the motorway. At the beginning good tarmac, but towards the top it changes into a very poor road surface. There are also many stones on the road.

Leuke klim. Kort maar krachtig! Geen last van verkeer. Dat raast links van je over de oprit naar de autosnelweg. Aan het begin goed asfalt, maar dat gaat tegen de top over in een zeer matig wegdek. Daar liggen ook veel steentjes op de weg.

In terms of traffic super quiet climb. Asphalt on top and in the descent from the west side is a bit worse.
NOTE: If you come from the north and are on the descent from Groot Haasdal you must brake in time and turn right. Otherwise you miss the climb and end up on the cycle path under the highway. There is a tree just before the exit for this climb. Junction 61 and the Raarveldroute also indicate the right way on signs on a lamppost just before the turnoff.
Tip: Drive after this climb to the Brakkeberg or the Geulhemmerberg or to Valkenburg for the Cauberg for a longer climb very close to this one.

Qua verkeer super rustig klimmetje. Asfalt is bovenop en in de afdaling van de westkant wel wat slechter.
LET OP: Als je van het noorden komt en in de afdaling zit vanuit Groot Haasdal moet je op tijd remmen en rechts afslaan. Anders mis je de klim en kom je op het fietspad onder de snelweg uit. Er staat namelijk een boom net voor de afslag voor deze klim. Knooppunt 61 en de Raarveldroute geven ook de goeie weg aan op bordjes op een lantaarnpaal net voor de afslag.
Tip: Rij na deze klim door naar de Brakkeberg of de Geulhemmerberg of naar Valkenburg voor de Cauberg voor een wat langer klimmetje erg dichtbij deze.
