As with the ascent of Turtmanntal, the ramp at the start makes you want to turn back... The climb started in the morning before the sun came out, otherwise it quickly became stiflingly hot. After that, it's a long, rather rolling traverse along the hillside to Burchen, where things get complicated again. Once you get onto the forest road above the village of Zenhausern, it gets nicer'the forest provides shade and the road becomes more rolling again. A nugget of a climb

Comme pour la montée du Turtmanntal, la rampe du début donne envie de faire demi-tour... Une montée a commencé le matin avant que le soleil soit sorti sinon c'est vite une chaleur étouffante. Pour la suite, c'est une grande traversée a flanc côteau plutôt roulant jusqu'a Burchen ou les choses se compliquent a nouveau. Une fois qu'on rentre dans la route forestière au dessus du village de Zenhausern sa devient plus sympa la foret amène de l'ombre et la route devient plus roulante a nouveau. Une pépite cette montée
