I had originally rated this climb with three stars due to the mostly moderate gradient. In the meantime, however, I see many advantages of such a route in a region where such long climbs are rare. In addition, the scenic setting with the scattered buildings and the stream in the lower section is quite picturesque.... read more

Ich hatte diesen Anstieg aufgrund der meist nur moderaten Steigung ursprünglich "nur" mit drei Sternen bewertet. Mittlerweile sehe ich aber viele Vorzüge einer solchen Strecke in einer Region, in der solche langgezogenen Anstiege rar sind. Zudem ist die landschaftliche Einbettung mit den vereinzelten Gebäuden und dem Bachlauf im unteren Abschnitt durchaus malerisch.

A nice alternative up to Bölling if you want to avoid the shorter but steeper climbs in the region. Nevertheless, there are one or two short stretches in the second half of the climb that come close to 10％. However, these are all overcome so quickly that there are plenty of opportunities to catch your breath. The first half is particularly interesting from a scenic point of view, leading quite closely along the Nimmerbach stream and past small hamlets.

Eine nette Alternative hoch zum Bölling, möchte man sich die kürzeren aber steileren Anstiege in der Region ersparen. Und dennoch hat der Anstieg in der zweiten Hälfte den ein- oder anderen kurzen Stich, der an die 10％ heranreicht. Diese sind aber allesamt so zügig überstanden, dass man Möglichkeiten zum Verschnaufen findet. Landschaftlich interessant ist vorallem die erste Hälfte, die teilweise recht Dicht entlang des Nimmerbachs und vorbei an kleineren Weilern führt.
