Hi all,
Question, possibly moving to Amsterdam, Netherlands in the near future and wondering if there is any point in taking my Specialised Levo across? Any decent trails trails/climbs?
Or should I just trade it on a Diverge?
Thanks,
C.

There are mtb tracks scattered around the country, but dont expect anything serious downhill, uphill or technical sections. Mostly XC style tracks over mostly flat areas.
Perhaps the dunes near the coast offer a nice place to bike, otherwise more to the east there is the Utrechtse Heuvelrug and the Veluwe that could be of interest.

If you want to check them all: Welkom op deze website MTBroutes.nl

I dont know if its worth it for you. I personally think mtb in belgium, germany and france is way more interesting, so whenever i get the chance i go there with my emtb. But that doesnt mean you cant have a good time exploring the Dutch nature. Just stick with the trails, because going off trail apparently isnt appreciated. Trails are clearly marked, so following them is easy.

I life in the exact middle of the Netherlands and mostly doing XC stuff here. There are some manmade trails that have a few drop-ins etc, but nothing that goes really downhill...

But like @S13 said, I had a nice long weekend in the south of Limburg providence, near Valkenburg and that was a blast to be there, made a few trips into Belgium due to not wanting to enter Germany yet with covid regulations etc...
