Tricky climb, which is car-free for the last part, but does turn into gravel. Even with the gravel bike, there were some bits in the final kilometres that were basically impossible in terms of steepness and surface. Nevertheless, great climb with a breathtaking panorama at the top. Don't forget to continue cycling towards Hotel Belalp.
Lastige klim, die het laatste gedeelte autovrij is, maar wel overgaat in gravel. Zelfs met de gravel bike waren er in de slotkilometers enkele stukjes bij die in feite onmogelijk waren qua steilheid en ondergrond. Desalniettemin geweldige beklimming met een adembenemend panorama op de top. Vergeet vooral niet door de fietsen richting Hotel Belalp.
Climbed this climb in 2017 up to Tatsche. It is a nice quiet climb with very little traffic as the road ends in a ski area and it is not a continuous road. Up to Tatsche it is fine tarmac, from there a gravel road goes even further up. As you can see on the profile map, this climb is pretty evenly steep, the pieces below 8% 'run' very nice because usually the gradient is higher.
Deze klim in 2017 beklommen tot aan Tatsche. Het is een mooie rustige klim met erg weinig verkeer want de weg eindigt in een skigebied en het is geen doorlopende weg. Tot aan Tatsche is het prima asfalt, vanaf daar gaat een gravel weg nog verder omhoog. Zoals op de profiel kaart is te zien is deze klim behoorlijk gelijkmatig stijl, de stukjes onder de 8% 'lopen' erg lekker want meestal is het stijgingspercentage hoger.
