Great singletrack. With wide tires, it's also easy to do on a gravel bike, but there are a few tree trunks that will require you to get off the bike for a bit.

Nice straight climb that makes a nice turn at the end. It goes up quite steeply and you can see the climb coming, which makes it extra impressive. The asphalt on the east side near Kleve is not great. When you are at the top and descend towards the west, it is fine. In that respect, it is therefore advisable to ride from east to west.
