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.... read more

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

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.

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.

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.
