Very scenic climb accessed from Dimmelsvik just outside the village of Rosendal. It starts off quite hard and has some tough ramps throughout, but also some descents and flatter sections to recover. Not too hard in my opinion, although the small kickers on the descent are definitely felt 😅 Overall I’d say it’s worthwhile to do, but I really recommend having strong lights on your bike, because the summit area features two really dark tunnels with quite sketchy road surface.... read more
