The Schaarsbergen route is an absolute playground, full of curves and more height difference than you would think. The constant technical steering, climbing and descending feels good on your legs as you move through a beautiful forest. The route is not inferior to an average mountain bike route on the Utrechtse Heuvelrug. The volunteers of MTB Veluwe Zuid did a good job!
The route can easily be combined with other routes of MTB Veluwe Zuid (Arnhem, Ede, etc.) and the Natuurmonumenten Rheden route on the Veluwezoom. Although someone who can steer well would dare to do this on a gravel bike, I would mainly do this with an MTB because of the technical degree.

Challenging climbs with the necessary bends and a wonderful descent!

Part of the blue MTB route Schaarsbergen. This is the part with the most height differences. Some nice drops in this piece.
Smart route construction by making maximum use of the sloping walls next to the zoo. This way, a stretch of asphalt is nicely avoided.
