In Linnville, leave the main thoroughfare at the sign for Black Hill viewpoint. What follows is a very irregular 3-kilometre climb. The last bit is very tricky for a while. Beware the descent can be dangerous, due to poor road surface and gradient.

In Linnville verlaat je de grote doorgaande weg bij het bordje richting Black Hill viewpoint. Wat volgt is een zeer onregelmatige klim van 3 kilometer. Het laatste stukje is nog even erg lastig. Let op de afdaling kan gevaarlijk zijn, vanwege slechte wegdek en hellingsgraad.
