I tackled the climb as a starting point for a tour to the Liechtenstein border with Austria. From the village of Maienfled, one ascends through vineyards towards Heididorf with a beautiful view of the Rhine valley. The climb is short but not trivial and tackled without an initial warm-up took my breath away.
Ho affrontato la salita come punto di partenza per un tour fino al confine del Liechtenstein con l'Austria. Dal paese di Maienfled si sale in mezzo ai vigneti verso l'Heididorf con una bella vista sulla valle del Reno. La salita è breve ma non banale e affrontata senza un riscaldamento iniziale mi ha spezzato il fiato.
Nice climb but a nasty one. I thought to sneak away from my mates who were in a better shape but I had to suffer through it on the steep part. Too long to cycle on power. I managed for the first half kilometer but then my legs started to fill up because it got steeper and steeper. At the top you have a barracks so when we were eating our bars and bananas on the parking lot all kinds of military trucks and tracked vehicles came parading by. This climb is absolutely the best choice if you want to cycle from Chur to the north, much nicer than the Rhine valley (and less wind by the way).
Mooi klimmetje maar wel een rotding. Ik dacht onderaan even sneaky weg te rijden bij mijn maten die beter in vorm waren maar dat moest ik flink bezuren op het steile gedeelte. Te lang om op de macht op te fietsen. Dat lukt de eerste halve kilometer maar daarna lopen de benen steeds voller omdat het steeds steiler wordt en kom je uiteindelijk goed tot stilstand. Boven heb je een kazerne dus toen we onze reepjes en bananen aan het eten waren op de parkeerplaats kwamen er allerlei militaire trucks en rupsvoertuigen langs paraderen. Deze klim is absoluut de beste keuze als je van Chur naar het noorden wilt fietsen, veel leuker dan het Rijndal (en ook minder wind overigens).
