If you like challenges and steep climbs, this one is definitely not to be missed! Once you are out of the village of Hilterfingen, your GPS no longer indicates a gradient lower than 17%! Instead of 3.6km, I covered at least 6km to the top because of the continuous slalom where my front wheel often came off the ground, especially at the part where my gps indicated 26%.

It is a narrow road to the top and you only get a nice view if you are also at the top. During the climb, you can't enjoy the scenery. Only the asphalt.

With a lot of effort, I happily reached the top without having to dismount. If you have to dismount halfway up the climb, cycling further up would no longer be possible. The path is too narrow and steep to get off, pick up some speed and continue cycling straight up.

I strongly advise against descending! It is 1 long straight road down and as soon as you approach the village you get an almost right-angled turn.

Als je van uitdagingen en steile beklimmingen houdt mag je deze zeker niet missen! Ben je het dorp Hilterfingen uit, dan geeft je gps geen hellingspercentage lager dan 17% meer aan! In plaats van 3,6km heb ik minstens 6km afgelegd naar de top wegens het continu geslalom waarbij mijn voorwiel vaak los van de grond kwam, zeker bij het gedeelte waarbij mijn gps 26% aangaf.

Het is een smalle weg naar boven en je hebt enkel een mooi uitzicht als je ook boven bent. Gedurende de klim kun je niet genieten van de omgeving. Enkel van het asfalt.

Ik heb met héél veel moeite gelukkig de top bereikt zonder af te hoeven stappen. Moet je halverwege de klim afstappen, dan zou verder omhoog fietsen niet meer mogelijk zijn. Het pad is te smal en te steil om op te stappen, enige vaart te maken en gelijk verder te fietsen.

Afdalen raad ik ten zeerste af! Het is 1 lange rechte weg naar beneden en zodra je het dorp nadert krijg je gelijk een zo goed als haakse bocht.
