Since 2005, our team has been committed to finding the nicest cycling accommodations and cycling hotels with a great location, including fantastic meals and cycling guides to make our guests feel at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why? Because we have a love for the mountains and for cycling. We have explored and cycled all the cycling areas and cycling routes on Chaletbeyond.nl ourselves. For us, there is no better way to share our passion for cycling with you than to ensure a great stay at Chalet Beyond!<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b8144782\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-03beac7c\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-2c5ccede\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-8850d073\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-8850d073\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-bc88ac33 gb-headline-text\">Jeroen Hop<\/h2><br>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-e7f21530 gb-headline-text\">Owner Chalet Beyond<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-258ef336 gb-headline-text\">My love for nature, and the mountains in particular, gave me the urge to cycle up these mountains. I started doing this, and this hobby somewhat got out of hand. After many cycling holidays, it became clear to me: this is what really gets me fired up. I want to share my enthusiasm for cycling in the mountains with as many people as possible!<br><br>\r\n\r\nI started doing this with Ride Up Cycling Tours. Since 2026, I can call myself the owner of Chalet Beyond. The awesome world of winter sports was added as well\u2014also wonderfully active in the mountains!<br><br>\r\n\r\nYou can contact me for just about anything. I will always try to create a suitable proposal to make our guests happy. We organize your amazing winter sports or cycling holiday!<\/p><br>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-badf5419\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-badf5419\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-0ca8e7ee\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-0ca8e7ee\" src=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/Jeroen-zomer.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Jeroen-zomer\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/Jeroen-zomer.jpg 800w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/Jeroen-zomer-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/01\/Jeroen-zomer-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure><br>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-4f6471ca\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-5429d9f5\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-5429d9f5\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-d4248e27\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"414\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-d4248e27\" src=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Wouter.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Wouter\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Wouter.jpg 663w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Wouter-300x187.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/><\/figure><br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-bc88ac33 gb-headline-text\">Wouter Berendsen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-4d007460 gb-headline-text\">Founder Chalet Beyond<\/h3><br>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-258ef336 gb-headline-text\">For me, every day is about improving our services for our customers.

I also like to take long walks on the beautiful paths of Oz and the surrounding area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the HR Manager at Chalet Beyond my main task is to recruit and guide our staff. In addition, I am involved in processing bookings.&#13;\n&#13;\nLiving in the beautiful Oisans region makes it possible to regularly help out in one of our chalets and provide everyone with the best local information.&#13;\n&#13;\nHope to see you soon!<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e9b3545c\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-b398b87d\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-3cc7a1f6\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-3cc7a1f6\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-c7c03b9f\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"916\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-c7c03b9f\" src=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/Wij.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Wij\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/Wij.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/Wij-300x254.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/Wij-1024x869.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/Wij-768x651.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure><br>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-ced15823\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ced15823\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-47e9234f gb-headline-text\">Jason en Ren\u00e9e<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-86e61dd0 gb-headline-text\">Chalet Hosts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hello, we are Jason &amp; Ren\u00e9e: chalet managers and permanent staff at Chalet Beyond.

We both truly enjoy living in the mountains and fully embrace hiking, climbing, and running during the summer. In the winter, of course, we love hitting the slopes to ski and snowboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wherever we may meet you, we will always do everything we can to make your stay as enjoyable as possible and contribute to an unforgettable holiday!<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b21769d8\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-902e9e01\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-e9f8d05e\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e9f8d05e\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-72cb67a4\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-ca616b80\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-ca616b80\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-11204138\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"918\" height=\"625\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-11204138\" src=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/01\/PHOTO-2025-01-29-21-00-14-4.jpg\" alt=\"Ambassadeur van Chalet Beyond: Biketravels\" title=\"Ambassadeur of Chalet Beyond: Biketravels\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/01\/PHOTO-2025-01-29-21-00-14-4.jpg 918w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/01\/PHOTO-2025-01-29-21-00-14-4-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/01\/PHOTO-2025-01-29-21-00-14-4-768x523.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 918px) 100vw, 918px\" \/><\/figure><br>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-4554b1bb\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-4554b1bb\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-3c21e164 gb-headline-text\">Biketravels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-089369b1 gb-headline-text\">Ambassador Chalet Beyond<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tim &amp; Ruth inspire others every day to get on their bike with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/biketravels.cc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@Biketravels.cc<\/a>.

That is why I am extremely grateful for the opportunity Chalet Beyond has given me. I used to be a cyclist, and the sport holds a special place in my heart. Besides that, I greatly enjoy being active and spending time outdoors in the mountains. Two years ago, I had the opportunity to work during the Marmotte, an experience that taught me a lot and that I thoroughly enjoyed. Being able, through my studies, to once again contribute to creating an unforgettable experience for the participants is something that excites me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of my internship assignment, I will be working in Oz as: Assistant for the sports program, support with logistical planning, and general chalet staff.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-f3e908fa\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-f3e908fa\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-27275f62\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-07f84f30\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-07f84f30\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-0c82404f\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"705\" height=\"529\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-0c82404f\" src=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Tom.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Tom\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Tom.jpg 705w, https:\/\/chaletbeyond.nl\/fietsen\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/07\/Tom-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 705px) 100vw, 705px\" \/><\/figure><br>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-98e207d9\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-98e207d9\">\n\n<h2 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-a6633a17 gb-headline-text\">Tom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-59d9bc43 gb-headline-text\">Chalet Operator en Cycling Guide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Hey, nice to meet you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My name is Tom, I am 24 years old and I come from the beautiful Nieuwkoop in The Netherlands.
