The VAM berg (or Col du VAM as they call it nowadays) is part of a bigger garbage dump, turned into a recreational hill. With it's 48 meters it's quite the mountain (in The Netherlands that is) and the multiple roads leading up and down (including a mountainbike trail) make for a nice training ground or just chance of scenery for those tired of the flats of Drenthe.
Pro: the Ronde van Drenthe bicycle race hits this 'mountain' every year.
Con: It's still a garbage dump site in the middle of nowhere.

a former garbage dump turned into a cycling circuit. 3 short but steep climbs. Great fun when you're in the neighbourhood!
