Superb. Little traffic, especially on the section above the car parks at the lower railway station to Żar. The gradient is fairly steady. The views along the route are rather lacking, but behind the summit are sensational. I managed to do it all at once despite my poor experience and on a trekking bike with panniers.

Rewelacja. Ruch niewielki zwłaszcza na odcinku ponad parkingami przy dolnej stacji kolei na Żar. Nachylenie w miarę jednostajne. Na trasie widoków raczej brak ale za szczytu są rewelacyjne. Dałem radę na raz pomimo mojego mizernego doświadczenia i to na rowerze trekkingowym z sakwami.

Long climb, medium gradient. Easy to ride at an even pace and the views at the top will reward you for all your efforts.
Virtually no car traffic due to a traffic ban, only the first 1.5 km may see something, as it is also the access to the last car park and the railway.

Długi podjazd, średnie nachylenie. Na spokojnie do wyjechania równym tempem, a widoki na górze odpłacą za cały włożony wysiłek.
praktycznie zerowy ruch samochodowy ze względu na zakaz ruchu, tylko pierwsze 1.5km może się coś trafić, bo jest to też dojazd do ostatniego parkingu i kolejki.

Difficult but not long ascent, variable gradient, medium surface condition, note the rough tarmac on the descent. Beautiful view from the summit. Considerable car and pedestrian traffic, especially in the upper parts.

Podjazd trudny, choć niedługi, zmienne nachylenie, średni stan nawierzchni, uwaga na chropawy asfalt przy zjeździe. Ze szczytu piękny widok. Spory ruch samochodów i pieszych, zwłaszcza w górnych partiach.

One of the nicest climbs in Poland. The view on top is beautiful and the climb has a pretty steady gradient
