A short but very demanding climb with a perfect surface to Oberrickenbach. I did it at the end of March in the late afternoon, and there was hardly anyone there. Magnificent views. The end of the climb is made of cement, but it's very good quality.... read more

A short but very demanding climb with a perfect surface to Oberrickenbach. I did it at the end of March in the late afternoon, and there was hardly anyone there. Magnificent views. The end of the climb is made of cement, but it's very good quality.

Courte mais très exigente montée avec un revêtement parfait jusqu'à Oberrickenbach. Effectuée fin mars en fin d'après midi, il.ny avait quasiment personne. Magnifique panorama. La fin de la montée est en ciment, mais il est de très bonne qualité.
