Stevige dead-end-klim op een eerder smal baantje. Boven is een ziekenhuis dus enig verkeer is er wel, maar niet overdreven. De steiltegraad gaat steeds in de dubbele cijfers en naar mijn gevoel is deze klim iets roder gekleurd in percentages dan hier voorgesteld.

Frequently Asked Questions
Hochzirl is a challenging ascent. For this type of climbing, we recommend mountain gearing, specifically a compact system. This means a small front chainring of 34 teeth, combined with a rear cassette where, depending on your level, strength, and experience, you choose a sprocket with 30, 32, or even 34 teeth. Remember that a smooth cadence is always more efficient!
