The climb starts modestly in Rüdesheim and leads through the world-famous vineyards above. Then a real kicker follows through a narrow gorge, with gradients >15%. The upper part through the woods is benign. This climb offers beautiful views of the Niederwalddenkmal (the “Germania”) and the Rhine-Valley.
