A pleasant, fairly easy climb through the forest.
The road is in good condition and not very busy. The first few kilometres are on a gentle gradient, giving you a chance to warm up.

As I live where there are no longer climbs this is a perfect climb to start with. Quite steady climb, less step in the beginning and a little bit more intense in the end. The road surface are ok and the road are mostly in the forrest.

A climb to do at the start of the season to get back into shape.
The gradients are not very steep, and the whole climb takes place in the forest.
