Up to the car park the climb has some very steep sections, especially 600 metres at 15% very hard between kilometres 3 and 4 approximately. After that it doesn't get as steep and there is some "rest", but it's still a tough climb, more suitable for MTB (especially if you come back down the same road).
There is more traffic than I expected, but it is still light.
The views towards Lachen and Lake Zurich are excellent and change with every turn. At every turn you come across horse, cow and goat farms and towards the end you enter a beautiful spruce forest (I think).
The road is fine up to the car park. Once you pass the car park it becomes a cracked concrete road with some asphalt sections.
In theory you can continue for 500 metres on a gravel road, which is not too complicated, and link up with Sattelegg, whose descent to Siebnen, especially from Vorderthal onwards, is much more enjoyable. However, I didn't get to check this junction.
Hasta el parking la subida tiene tramos muy empinados, especialmente 600 metros al 15% durísimos entre los kilómetros 3 y 4 aproximadamente. Después no alcanza cotas tan altas y hay algún “descanso”, pero sigue siendo una subida dura, más apropiada para MTB (sobre todo si se vuelve a bajar por la misma carretera).
Hay más tráfico del que esperaba, pero es aun así escaso.
Las vistas hacia Lachen y el lago de Zúrich son excelentes y van cambiando cada curva. A cada paso te encuentras com granjas de caballos, vacas y cabras y hacia el final entras en un precioso bosque de abetos (creo).
El firme está bien hasta el parking. Una vez que lo pasas se convierte en una carretera de cemento agrietada con algunos tramos de asfalto.
En teoría se puede seguir 500 metros por un camino de gravel no muy complicado y enlazar por Sattelegg, cuya bajada hasta Siebnen, sobre todo a partir de Vorderthal, es mucho más disfrutable. Esta unión sin embargo no llegué a comprobarla.
