Fine running climb on nice wide road with little traffic. After the first summit (Schaentzel) a descent and then another stretch of nice climbing. Again, the crowds were not too bad now, but that will be disappointing in the season when I see how big the car park at the castle is.
Watch out for pedestrians!

Prima lopende klim op mooie brede weg met weinig verkeer. Na de eerste top (Schaentzel) een afdaling en dan weer een stukje mooi klimmen. Ook hier viel nu de drukte mee, maar dat zal in het seizoen wel tegenvallen als ik zie hoe groot de parkeerplaats bij het kasteel is.
Let op de voetgangers!

Meanwhile, the road is fine, very wide road (the first part up to Col du Schaentzel) with some traffic but not super busy. Then a short descent and very very good road surface a bit after that. If you turn left on the road towards the castle, you come to a busy road. Lots of people visit the castle but the road is wide enough not to get run over. It's still quite a serious climb, even in the car park (where you do have to watch out for tourists). At the top, you have a nice view :)

All in all, a nice climb but there are nicer climbs nearby. I descended towards Bergheim, that side as a climb seems nice too!

De weg is ondertussen prima, heel erg brede weg (het eerste deel tot Col du Schaentzel) met wat verkeer maar niet super druk. Daarna een korte afdaling en heel erg goed wegdek een stuk erna. Als je de op de weg links draait richting het kasteel kom je op een drukke weg. Veel mensen bezoeken het kasteel maar de weg is breed genoeg om niet overhoop gereden te worden. Het blijft toch nog best serieus klimmen, ook op de parkeerplaats (waar je wel op moet passen voor toeristen). Op de top heb je een mooi uitzicht :)

Al met al een leuke beklimming maar er zijn wel mooiere beklimmingen in de buurt. Ik ben afgedaald richting Bergheim, die kant als klim lijkt me ook leuk!

The road was resurfaced in spring 2022, in gravel, too bad.
The climb is not very difficult. The other accesses are more interesting.

La route a été refaite au printemps 2022, en gravillon, dommage.
Montée sans grand difficulté. Les autres accès sont plus intéressants.

Road with some traffic. Lots of gravel, better to do it uphill. Not very hard, no view, forgettable

Route avec un peu de trafic. Beaucoup de gravillon, il vaut mieux la faire en montée. Pas très dur, pas de vue, oubliable
