Another beautiful ride starting at Fixed Gear Coffee in Valkenburg, the best combination of coffee, cake and bikes in the South of Limburg. This route takes you to a less explored region north of Valkenburg, not the first place gravel riders will go to when in Valkenburg, but certainly a region that offers great gravel tracks and is a bit easier than south of Valkenburg.

This route mainly runs between the fields of Schimmert and Nuth. The gravel is always very smooth and offers wide paths, although the finish through Ravensbosch is an easy single  path downhill. The climbs in this route are around 4% to 5% and should be easily rideable by anyone.

When riding these roads you have some beautiful wide views. I’d be happy to hear comments and improvements about this route. Just let me know.

Gronsveld – Gulpen

This ride is categorised as an easy ride, but I must admit that it has a few climbs in it, that might make some people say it is maybe more of a medium type of ride. Well, only for you to decide.

Valkenburg – Gulpen – Banholt

I tried to make this route as flat as possible, but we’re in the South of Limburg and we’re famous for our hills, so I had to make some exceptions to keep the route a gravel route.
