unfortunately very crowdy road. I like it more to climb up to the Hohe Acht from Kesseling on. A bit smaller street with less traffic

Most part is quite busy with trucks and motorcycles.
Last part to Hohe Acht is very beautiful. Only the very last piece is very steep. You can also walk to watchtower.

Grootste deel is vrij druk met vrachtverkeer en motoren.
Laatste stuk naar Hohe Acht is erg mooi. Alleen het allerlaatste stukje is erg stijl. Kan je ook lopen naar uitzichttoren.

Longer climb with nice percentages to the highest point of the Eifel, but along busy road with screeching engines.
You can hear the cars or motorcycles on the Nürnbürgring.

Langere klim met mooie percentages naar t hoogste punt van de Eifel; wel langs drukke weg met scheurende motoren.
Je hoort de auto's of motoren op de Nürnbürgring.

Not necessarily a very difficult climb, it never gets really steep. The climb is quite long and gives you quite a few height meters. The tarmac is good. Unfortunately, the road is quite crowded with German speeders, so the climb is not high on my list. At the bottom of the climb, right at the beginning, you cycle a bit along the Nürburgring.

Niet per sé een hele moeilijke klim, het wordt nooit echt steil. De klim is vrij lang en geeft je aardig wat hoogtemeters. Het asfalt is goed. Helaas is de weg vrij druk met Duitse hardrijders, waardoor de klim niet hoog staat op mijn lijstje. Onderaan de klim, helemaal aan het begin fiets je een stukje langs de Nürburgring.

Up to where you turn right at the parking lot this climb is long, but doable. After that it gets really hard, but the view above (from the tower) is definitely worth it.

Tot aan waar je rechts gaat bij de parkeerplaats is deze klim lang, maar goed te doen. Daarna wordt het echt harken, maar het uitzicht boven (vanaf de toren) is het zeker waard.
