Cette belle montée commence en proximité du moument très connu "Igeler Säule". Le macadam est excellent et l'ascension n'est pas trop raide. En tournant à droite dans la deuxième épingle (am Schleitberg), on peut faire un petit détour dans les vignes et visiter un petit temple Romain ("Grutenhäuschen") qui offre une belle vue sur la Moselle.
