A forest road closed by a barrier - with a passage for cyclists and pedestrians. The first bit of road surface is a bit poor with a few metres of gravel but don't let that stop you because further on it gets a lot better and is fine for cycling - and the road leads through really beautiful surroundings.
The first part you follow a brook valley after which you cross the beautiful brook and on the other side it goes uphill for a bit and then it becomes flat - until the left turn because after that there are a few hundred metres of really steep metres where the hunting lodge (hochsitz) at the top is a nice aim. After that it is reasonable cycling out to the highest point.
It is nice to descend to the brook after that as you first get a nice waterfall and then the beautiful brook landscape to accompany it. After the stream, there is a small climb followed by an ever-decreasing and fairly straight road to the main road.
Throughout the climb, you hear the sound of many birds and almost continuous gurgling water from the many streams you cross. Really enjoy this climb.

Een bosweggetje dat met een slagboom - met een doorgang voor fietsers en voetgangers - is afgesloten. Het eerste stukje wegdek is wat matig met enkele meters gravel maar laat je daardoor niet tegenhouden want verderop wordt het stukken beter en is het prima te fietsen - en het weggetje loopt door een werkelijk prachtige omgeving.
het eerste deel volg je een beekdal waarna je de mooie beek oversteekt en het aan de overkant even omhoog gaat en daarna vlak wordt - tot de bocht naar links want daarna volgen enkele honderden meters aan echt steile meters waar de jachthut (hochsitz) bovenaan een mooi mikpunt is. Daarna is het redelijk uitfietsen tot het hoogste punt.
Leuk is om daarna even af te dalen naar de beek want je krijgt eerst een leuk watervalletje en daarna het fraaie beeklandschap als begeleiding. Na de beek nog een klein klimmetje waarna een alsmaar dalende en behoorlijk rechte weg tot aan de hoofdweg volgt.
Gedurende de hele klim hoor je het geluid van vele vogels en vrijwel continue klaterend water van de vele stroompjes die je kruist. Echt genieten deze klim.
