Pleasant climb near the Attersee. In Weyeregg am Attersee you leave the main road towards Bach. This part ascends very slightly and is therefore not part of the climb. It only begins in the village of Bach. From there on, the climb is steep. But after every bit of climbing, there is also a stretch to catch your breath.
In the beginning there is a lot of traffic, but the higher you go, the less it goes. In the last 2 km, I have not seen another car.
The road surface is fine everywhere and winds up via several hairpin bends. Again, you have alternation of open fields and forests (for cooling). When you come out of the last bend, you can see the radio tower in the distance. There it is, a short climb and you're there.
Just before the top there is a dead end to the left, where there are some houses. They sell special (game) meats and honey here. Drinks are unfortunately not available. But behind the houses, you can sit on the lawn and enjoy the view. Just don't sit too close to the beehives :D.
Aangename klim in de buurt van de Attersee. In Weyeregg am Attersee verlaat je de hoofdweg richting Bach. Dit stuk loopt heel licht op en maakt dus eigenlijk nog geen deel uit van de klim. Die begint pas in het dorpje Bach. Vanaf daar gaat het flink omhoog. Maar na elk stukje klimmen is er ook steeds weer een strook om wat op adem te komen.
In het begin is er best wat verkeer, maar naarmate je hoger gaat neemt dat snel af. In de laatste 2 km heb ik geen auto meer gezien.
Het wegdek is overal prima en slingert via enkele haarspeldbochten naar boven. Ook hier weer heb je afwisseling van open velden en bossen (voor afkoeling). Als je de laatste bocht uitkomt, zie je in de verte de radiotoren staan. Daar is het dan nog even klimmen en je bent er.
Net voor de top is er een doodlopende weg naar links, waar enkele huizen staan. Ze verkopen hier speciale (wild) vleeswaren en honing. Drank helaas niet. Maar achter de huizen kan je even op het grasveld genieten van het uitzicht. Alleen best niet te dicht bij de bijenkorven gaan zitten :D.
