Beautiful climb in 3 parts. First a few km of serious climbing where you go through some tunnels (tail light recommended), a relatively easy middle section and a very tough final stage. Halfway up, the road suddenly becomes narrow, making it virtually impossible for cars to pass each other. As a cyclist, this doesn't bother you much. In the final section, you keep seeing percentages of 11-13％ until you enter a more open stretch with beautiful views. The toughest part, however, is saved until the final kilometre, after which you will have great views from the top.
Prachtige klim in 3 delen. Eerst een paar km serieus klimmen waarbij je door enkele tunnels gaat (achterlicht aan te raden), een relatief eenvoudig middenstuk en een zeer pittige slotfase. Halverwege wordt de weg ineens smal, waardoor auto’s elkaar nagenoeg niet kunnen passeren. Als fietser heb je hier weinig last van. In het laatste deel blijf je maar percentages van 11-13％ zien totdat je in een meer open stuk komt met prachtige vergezichten. Het pittigste stuk blijft echter bewaard tot de slotkilometer, waarna je vanaf de top een prachtig uitzicht hebt.
I did this climb mid June and it is wonderful. It starts to climb from the start and there is no hanging about, the Laterns valley is wonderful and the climb after Innerlaterns is quite a humdinger. The road surface is good and there is little traffic.
One of the best climbs I have done. Great to combine with other climbs in the area.
Nice climb on a quiet road. Long and hard though.
With beautiful autumn weather at the beginning of September, it was enjoyable.
Mooi klim over een rustige weg. Lang en zwaar dat wel.
Met mooi herfstweer begin september was het genieten.
