The climb is quite pleasant, there are no surprising increases in gradient, you can maintain a nice steady pace. The surface at the beginning is asphalted, later changing to cobbled. After leaving the urban development, we ride among trees, so on a sunny day we have shade to cool down.

The climb is quite pleasant, there are no surprising increases in gradient, you can maintain a nice steady pace. The surface at the beginning is asphalted, later changing to cobbled. After leaving the urban development, we ride among trees, so on a sunny day we have shade to cool down. At the summit, a very cool panorama of Vienna awaits us, a bas-relief of the troops of the Battle of Vienna, a monument to the Polish king Jan III Sobieski, who in 1683 rushed to the aid of Austria and helped tip the scales of victory over the Turks. On the summit, you will also find a lime tree dedicated to the aforementioned king and an interesting waterhole.

Podjazd całkiem przyjemny, nie ma zaskakujących wzrostów nachylenia, można utrzymać fajne stałe tempo. Nawierzchnia na początku asfaltowa później zmieniająca się w brukowaną. Po wyjechaniu z zabudowy miejskiej, jedziemy wśród drzew, więc w słoneczny dzień mamy cień, który pozwoli nam się schłodzić. Na szczycie czeka nas bardzo fajna panorama Wiednia, płaskorzeźba Wojsk Odsieczy Wiedeńskiej, pomnik króla Polski Jana III Sobieskiego, który w 1683r. ruszył z pomocą Austrii i pomógł przychylić szalę zwycięstwa nad Turkami. Na szczycie znajdziemy również lipę poświęconą wspomnianemu królowi oraz ciekawy wodopój.

I started the climb from Nussdorf, after skirting the Danube, so it begins to climb for over a kilometre before reaching the charming village of Grinzing. I really wanted to do this climb as I've often been to Vienna and always stayed in these districts at the foot of the Kahlenberg. The climb itself isn't difficult if you're in reasonable physical condition and cycle regularly. Be careful on the way down, as the cobbles are not always in good condition. At the top, there is a beautiful view of the city of Vienna.

J'ai commendé la montée depuis Nussdorf, après avoir longé le Danube, cela commence donc à monter pendant plus d'un km avant d'arriver au village charmant de Grinzing. Je voulais absolument faire cette montée car je suis souvent allé à Vienne et je séjournais toujours dans ces quartiers au pied du Kahlenberg. La côte en soi n'est pas difficile si on a un minimum de condition physique et que l'on fait régulièrement du vélo. Attention à la descende, car les pavés ne sont pas toujours en bon état. Au sommet, il y a une très belle vue sur la ville de Vienne
