A narrow side road that leads to the viewpoint. The climb is short but very hard. You can't count on a breather or any flattening out. On rainy days, the asphalt can be a little muddy in places, but this does not hinder the ride. You may also come across dogs running freely in this area - fortunately they are very friendly. The problem with this climb is the gradient, which is reaching killer values. For me it was too steep!... read more

Pierwsza część podjazdu jest dobra i dostępna dla każdego.

Prawdziwe wyzwanie to końcówka - wąska boczna droga która prowadzi do punktu widokowego. Podjazd jest krótki ale bardzo twardy. Nie ma co liczyć na chwilę oddechu albo jakieś wypłaszczenie. W deszczowe dni asfalt może być miejscami trochę zabłocony, ale nie utrudnia to jazdy. Można natknąć się też na psy, które w tym miejscu biegają swobodnie - na szczęście są bardzo przyjazne.
Problemem tego podjazdu jest nachylenie, które jest osiąga mordercze wartości. Dla mnie było zbyt stromo!
