yes, it's true that it's quite a climb up to the lift station....what i don't see here in the elevation profile and is a real pity is that the last 2.5km from the shelter to the geischlägerhaus are missing, and that is a real challenge, according to the homepage the steepest asphalted road suitable for racing bikes in austria, the front wheel lifts off quite often at 25% +, the view at the top of the geischlägerhaus is a dream and is second to none, the descent to the lift station, on the other hand, is more of a nightmare, without disc brakes i would recommend some cooling breaks

ja stimmt schon das es bis zur liftstation ein ganz schönes brett ist....was ich hier nicht sehe im höhenprofil und echt schade ist, ist das die letzten 2,5km vom schutzhaus bis zum geischlägerhaus fehlen, und das ist dann mal eine richtige herausforderung, laut homepage die steilste asphaltierte rennradtaugliche strasse in österreich, das vorderrad hebt ziemlich oft ab bei 25% +, die aussicht oben am geischlägerhaus ist ein traum und sucht seinesgleichen, die abfahrt bis zur liftstation hingegen eher ein alptraum, ohne scheibenbremse würd ich einige kühlpausen empfehlen

Bit of a brute to be honest. The second half is just relentless, doesn’t get below 10% and often pitches over 14%. The goulasch at the top is a must!
