Ermelo sits in the forest-rich heart of the Veluwe, a 24 km loop where smooth woodland singletrack meets pockets of soft sand. It rewards riders who like to keep a rhythm while picking through deliberately built technical bends.
The route threads hardpack forest trails with sand passages and natural obstacles, broken up by challenging kombochten that ask for handling rather than power. Terrain stays relatively flat at 202 m of gain, crossing heathland, the Strokelbos and past visible burial mounds.
Plenty of woodland singletracks laced through hardpack forest trails make up the backbone of the loop.
Deliberately constructed kombochten add handling challenge on otherwise flowing, gentle terrain.
Veluwe sand mixes into the hardpack, so expect softer, more demanding sections in dry spells.
Run pressures slightly lower if the sand turns soft, so the tyres float rather than dig in.
