The altitude profile is quite typical of this small region. You have beautiful scenery, vineyards/terraces. Until the hairpin bends, the road surface is fine, then a bit less so. You do have to hope you don't run into anyone there as it is quite narrow. There is a restaurant at the top, so you might encounter more traffic than you would expect. All in all, a nice climb, quite irregular and quite high raking.... read more

Het hoogteprofiel is vrij typisch voor deze kleine regio. Je hebt een mooie omgeving, wijnranken/terrassen. Tot de haarspeldbochten is het wegdek prima, daarna wat minder. Het is wel hopen dat je er niemand tegenkomt want het is vrij smal. Er zit wel een restaurant op de top, wellicht dat je daardoor toch wat meer verkeer tegenkomt dan je zou verwachten. Al met al een mooie beklimming, vrij onregelmatig en een vrij hoog hark gehalte.
