Super diverse and certainly not easy. After Lückenbach, you dive into the forest where the road curves irregularly past deciduous trees, pines and babbling brooks. Once out of the forest, it does not flatten out and it is still a bit of a struggle.

Superafwisselend en zeker niet makkelijk. Na Lückenbach duik je het bos in waar de weg omloog loopt langs loofbomen, dennen en kabbelende beekjes. Eenmaal het bos uit vlakt het niet af en is het nog even op de tanden bijten. Klimtijd gemeten tot de splitsing.

Nice climb to combine with the Hohe Acht (near here). Until the village of Lückenbach it is an easy climb between the open meadows. After a short steep part you enter the forest and it becomes more of a real climb. Here it is quiet and nice climbing!

Mooie klim om te combineren samen met de Hohe Acht (hier vlakbij). Tot aan het dorpje Lückenbach is het makkelijke klim tussen de open weilanden. Na een kort steil stukje ga je het bos in en wordt het meer een echte klim. Hier is het rustig en mooi klimmen!
