The hardest, longest, and highest climb in Oslo. Probably the most prestigious strava-segment in Norway. Usually high traffic in the lower 1/3, moderate up to Holmenkollen and even less to the top. New asphalt for 2022 on the upper 2/3 - a welcome upgrade, as the top used to be quite bad and sketchy downhill.
