Very steep and relatively short climb, but you have to measure the effort because the slopes that reach 16％ (according to the Garmin) stay around 11％ on average for 1km.
The road is narrow but with little traffic. It starts at a very nice wooden bridge and, after the short but tough climb without tree protection, you enter a road that has a bit more traffic (at the top there is a popular restaurant) in a forest with views of Lake Zurich and also a lot of steep and sharp bends, so you have to be careful and watch your brakes.
Subida muy empinada y relativamente corta, pero hay que medir el esfuerzo porque las pendientes que llegan a un 16％ (según el Garmin) se mantienen entorno al 11％ de media durante 1km completo.
La calle es estrecha pero con poco tráfico. Comienza en un puente de madera muy bonito y, tras la corta pero dura subida sin protección de árboles, se entra en una carretera que tiene algo más de tráfico (en la cima hay un restaurante popular) en un bosque con vistas al lago de Zürich y también mucha pendiente y curvas cerradas, por lo que hay que ir con cuidado y cuidando los frenos.
