Dutch Maze

There are many sudokus in which the solver has to "create" a part of the puzzle in order to solve it, and those are usually my favorite. This is a variant on that idea that I haven't seen much before, probably because the gimmick isn't very "logical". Did I execute it well?

Rules

Normal sudoku rules apply.

Dutch Whisper: Create a line such that adjacent digits on the line have a difference of at least 4, as well as the following:

- The line must begin at the top left corner cell, on the orange dot.

- The line cannot move diagonally or enter a cell it has already been in.

- The line continues until it provides a unique solution to the puzzle.

Killer Cages: Digits in a cage sum to the total in the top left corner.

Happy solving!

Solution code: Columns 5 and 6 in that order, each from top to bottom.

Rev. { Added "normal sudoku rules apply" since I originally forgot to add it in the ruleset.
