Beautiful climb from Zagreb with a whole bunch of hairpin bends. The climb starts from the northern residential areas of Zagreb and you soon enter the quiet of the forest. The climb is never really steep, but it is a long one for the region with its 13km. The road is not crowded with traffic, but the cars that overtake you do so like crazy. But actually that is usual everywhere in Croatia. The climbing continues through the forest and from about six kilometres from the top you get the first view... read more

Beautiful climb from Zagreb with a whole bunch of hairpin bends. The climb starts from the northern residential areas of Zagreb and you soon enter the quiet of the forest. The climb is never really steep, but it is a long one for the region with its 13km. The road is not crowded with traffic, but the cars that overtake you do so like crazy. But actually that is usual everywhere in Croatia. The climbing continues through the forest and from about six kilometres from the top you get the first views of Zagreb. The road surface is okay, the descent on the western side I found lousy.
I would give this climb 3.5 stars, but because the rest of the area near Zagreb is so ugly I round it off to 4 stars for the region :p

Prachtige klim vanuit Zagreb met een hele berg haarspeldbochten. De klim begint vanuit de noordelijke woonwijken van Zagreb en je rijdt al snel de rust van het bos in. De klim is eigenlijk nergens echt steil, maar het is voor de regio wel een lange klim met zijn 13km. De weg is niet druk met verkeer, maar de auto's díe je inhalen doen dat als gekken. Maar eigenlijk is dat overal wel gebruikelijk in Kroatië. Het klimmen blijft continue door het bos gaan en vanaf een kilometer of zes van de top krijg je de eerste vergezichten op Zagreb. Het wegdek is best okay, de afdaling aan de westelijke kant vond ik belabberd.
Ik zou deze klim 3,5 ster geven, maar omdat de rest van de omgeving bij Zagreb zo lelijk is rond ik het voor de regio af naar 4 sterren :p
