Beautiful and tough ride. Continuously the same percentage and only in some curves the possibility to pause. 1 Thing is for sure; at the end of the climb you are rewarded with stunning views (see my photos's). Tip: Bring lights for the tunnel and watch out for slipperiness there. And should you want to climb further after the top of this climb (end of asphalt), equip your bike with gravel tyres. It can be extended by another 2.7km (avg. 4.2% of which 1.3km is 9%) on a gravel path.... read more

Prachtige en zware rit. Continu hetzelfde percentage en enkel in wat bochten de mogelijkheid om te pauzeren. 1 Ding is zeker; aan het eind van de klim word je beloond met een prachtig uitzicht (zie mijn foto's).

Tip: Neem verlichting mee voor de tunnel en pas daar op voor gladheid. En mocht je nog verder willen klimmen na de top van deze klim (einde asfalt), voorzie je fiets dan van gravelbanden. Hij is nog met 2,7km (gem. 4,2% waarvan 1,3km 9%) te verlengen over een grindpad.

A real challenge. You have to hang on, it never stops! However, I was surprised by the quality of the tarmac'I went with my partner, who isn't comfortable on a bike, and despite everything, the descent went well.

Un vrai défi. Faut s'accrocher, sa s'arrête jamais! Cependant la qualité du goudron m'a surpris j'y suis aller avec ma compagne pas a l'aise en vélo et la descente c'est malgré tous bien passé

Beautiful ascent, challenging without any breaks, but you are rewarded at the top with one of the most beautiful views in the Bernese Oberland

wunderschöner Anstieg, zwar fordernd ohne jegliche Pause, oben angekommen wird man entschädigt, einer schönsten Aussichten im Berner Oberland
