Because of the heavy traffic, this is really not recommended. The first kilometre from Königswinter there is still a cycle path, but after that you have to share the road with car traffic and although German car drivers are generally courteous and keep their distance, the climb is no fun otherwise. While I found the Fernpass in Austria not too bad, this climb therefore really disappointed me. Not recommended.... read more

Vanwege het drukke verkeer echt een afrader. De eerste kilometer vanuit Königswinter is er nog een fietspad, maar daarna moet je de weg met het autoverkeer delen en hoewel Duitse autorijders over het algemeen hoffelijk zijn en afstand houden, is de klim verder geen pretje. Terwijl mij de Fernpass in Oostenrijk wel mee vond vallen, viel me deze klim daarom echt tegen. Geen aanrader.

An absolute classic, unfortunately often crowded with cars. Starts off steeply at the beginning, then flattens out and really picks up again at the end

Absoluter Klassiker, leider oft viele Autos unterwegs. Geht am Anfang steil los, wird dann flacher und zieht hinten raus noch mal richtig an
