For decades, the Amstel Gold Race has been held there. The best that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.visitzuidlimburg.nl\/te-doen-in-zuid-limburg\/wielrennen-in-zuid-limburg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">South Limburg<\/a> I used to go on holiday here often, in the area around Eys and the notorious Eyserbosweg. Near Gulpen and the Gulpenerberg. In Slenaken, at the bottom of the Loorberg, lies a complete family history. Not to mention the Keuterberg (now out of the running) and the Cauberg. Stories are endless. I\u2019ll take you through a few of the beautiful climbs, with a few personal anecdotes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>text: Sander Kolsloot<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Amstel Gold Race at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The only Dutch cycling classic, every April in South Limburg, finishing in Berg en Terblijt near Valkenburg.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Famous climbs: the Cauberg, Eyserbosweg, Keutenberg (up to 22%, the steepest metres in the Netherlands), Camerig, Loorberg and Bemelerberg.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Ride it yourself: the Amstel Gold Race sportive for everyone is on Saturday 17 April 2027, with several distances.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Base: Valkenburg, Gulpen or Epen. From any of these villages you are straight into the hills.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Updated in October 2026 with the key facts and practical tips. The story below is our original article.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Camerig<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It must have been 1992 when I first got to know the Camerig. As a family, we never went on very long vacations, so this was a serious challenge for me. From Epen we drive up the mountain and I will never forget that beautiful hairpin bend. The view over the valley is also beautiful. I still hear my parents saying: \u2018Having a house here is amazing\u2019. That never happened. What else will I remember? The ice at the Wingbergerhoeve remains a family favorite. What do you want? At the time, it cost 2.50 for five (!) cones. The climb itself is over 150 kilometers from the finish, so it probably won\u2019t be decisive. With a length of 4.7 kilometers and a few tricky sections, it\u2019s not a easy climb. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"6108\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/8E2C60EC-CCBF-4C28-932D-DD8E585DAB23_1_201_a-2-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"Amstel Gold Race: the best climbs\" class=\"wp-image-6108\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cauberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the fact that the Cauberg is not the steepest, longest, or most difficult climb, this stretch from the town offers some of the most spectacular views in the country. <a href=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/en\/stories\/valkenburg-the-netherlands-cycling-hotspot\/\">Valkenburg<\/a> A status almost mythical. For the Belgians, this is \u2018Gilbert territory\u2019. Jan Raas also loved coming here. The Kneet fell into the arms of De Mart on the top of the Cauberg. For me, the Cauberg is one of two stories. My first experience on a bike was one to quickly forget. It was uphill. I never thought about where to accelerate. It was up. My other experience? Yes, that from 1998. Torrential rain. World Championships in Valkenburg. The tall figure of Herman Wijffels. A furious mother and the rest is history. (read it here!) Enjoying the moment and screaming for Michael Boogerd. The Italians behind us who were shouting \u2018Michele!\u2019 The orange Rabo sea. What a bizarrely beautiful memory. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"22100\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8926-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"The beginning at the Casino\" class=\"wp-image-22100\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8926-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8926-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8926-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8926-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8926.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The beginning at the Casino<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-id=\"22101\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8929-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"The Bridge of Gilbert\" class=\"wp-image-22101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8929-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8929-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8929-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8929-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Cauberg8929.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Bridge of Gilbert<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"18726\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/LandalCauberg-04-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Right above it is the sign\" class=\"wp-image-18726\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Right above it is the sign<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loorberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As mentioned earlier. Here lies family history. In 1993, my niece got married in the church in Slenaken. Year after year, we would come to this village, sometimes for a holiday, sometimes for a day out. The Cafetaria \u2019t Brugske, at the bottom of the Loorberg, was a regular stop. In 2016, I rode the Volta Limburg Classic with my brother. I didn\u2019t expect to have to push him up that hill. The Loorberg is a wonderful hill to run on. It\u2019s really a training climb. So it\u2019s great for a team to take a break from time to time. This year, in 2022, things have changed, so we have to be careful, because they will then head for the King of Spain, towards the Gulperberg. That will be a tough climb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" data-id=\"22095\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Loorberg-1024x575.jpeg\" alt=\"The hill with a view of Slenaken\" class=\"wp-image-22095\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Loorberg-1024x575.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Loorberg-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Loorberg-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Loorberg-1536x863.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Loorberg.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The hill with a view of Slenaken<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bemelerberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 1998 World Championships run as a constant thread through my cycling fan life. We were in this area for four days. On the Bemelerberg, during the women\u2019s competition, we were at a cafe. \u2018Our Leontien\u2019 came by there. What a cacophony of noise when she passed by! The road race and the time trial were bizarre in that respect. \u2018Tinus\u2019 won gold and silver. The caf\u00e9 went crazy. We did too, even without the sponsor\u2019s beer. With an average of 5%.4 km per kilometer and a maximum of 7.4%, this is certainly not a difficult climb. But given its location in the race, it\u2019s not to be missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" data-id=\"6110\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/41760.jpeg\" alt=\"amstel gold race, limburg, cycling, \" class=\"wp-image-6110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/41760.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/41760-300x150.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/41760-768x384.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eyserbosweg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For many years from 1995 to 2005, I stood here. At the top of Eyserbosweg. We made a sport of seeing the course at as many places as possible during the many loops of the Amstel Gold Race. If you did your best, you could see the course six to seven times. The last place was then Eyserbosweg, sometimes with a sprint race towards Maastricht. Where \u2018Boogie\u2019 Lance won in that famous sprint. I remember especially that we took a detour from Ubachsberg, and then parked the car in the field. Race to the top. Right at the point where the road slightly flattened out, that\u2019s where we stood. And that\u2019s where they came, and Boogerd always rode in front. These memories are fantastic. A kilometer at almost 10 percent with outliers towards 17.5 percent. This is the real hard-core and sharpest rider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery cd-gal-staand has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1920\" data-id=\"22097\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9238.jpeg\" alt=\"Amstel Gold Race: the beautiful climbs, photo 2\" class=\"wp-image-22097\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9238.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9238-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9238-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9238-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9238-1229x1536.jpeg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1920\" data-id=\"22098\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9237.jpeg\" alt=\"Amstel Gold Race: the beautiful climbs, photo 3\" class=\"wp-image-22098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9237.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9237-240x300.jpeg 240w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9237-819x1024.jpeg 819w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9237-768x960.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Eyserbos9237-1229x1536.jpeg 1229w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keutenberg<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Should we still talk about this hump?
