Very little traffic but road not always in great condition. There are several gravel sections. Great view from the last bend before you start to descend into the valley. There's a restaurant but it was still closed (mid april).

After the first hundred meters in the village and through the fields, there are 5 km steep through the forest with no traffic. The road is not always in perfect conditions and there are 4-5 short gravel sections that are easily rideable with a road bike. The last section is flatter and you can see Lake Thun and the snowy mountains of the Jungfrau region. From the top, you can cycle a few hundred metres further and enjoy an excellent cheese plate at Alp Langenegg.
