Center of the Netherlands

Highlight • Monument

Situation has changed. Right now at the beginning of this excavation, part of the difficult/red route.
The climb is reinforced with logs.

The geographic center of the Netherlands. Easy to recognize by the large stone. You also have plenty of opportunities here to sit down for a break.

Switchback Zandgat Veluwe

Long Climb Zandgat

Highlight • Climb

New part of the Lunteren MTB route. First time ridden in rain on muddy track. It is already noticeable that a challenging loop has been added, where optimal use has been made of the terrain.
