Excellent route, you can enjoy the hardest parts of the Hornisgrinde climb, but cut the climb in half, and then go on to other climbs.... read more

Excellent route, you can enjoy the hardest parts of the Hornisgrinde climb, but cut the climb in half, and then go on to other climbs.

Route excellente, on peut "profiter" des parties les plus dures de la montée du Hornisgrinde mais en coupant le dénivelé en deux, pour enchaîner d'autres montées ailleurs.

I find this a very nice climb. Very good tarmac, in terms of traffic much quieter than the main road from Sasbachwalden to Mummelsee (Hornisgrinde) and much less descent allowing you to enjoy the beautiful landscape and views more. Apart from some leaves on the road here and there (mid-October), the descent to Seebach is beautiful and safe. Combine this climb with an (easier than via Brandmatt) continuation from Seebach to Mummelsee/Hornisgrinde and you have the best of both worlds!

IK vind dit een erg mooie beklimming. Heel goed asfalt, qua verkeer veel rustiger dan de doorgaande weg vanuit Sasbachwalden naar Mummelsee (Hornisgrinde) en veel minder afzien waardoor je meer kunt genieten van het mooie landschap en de vergezichten. Afgezien van hier en daar wat bladeren op de weg (medio oktober) is de afdaling naar Seebach mooi en veilig. Combineer deze beklimming met een (makkelijker dan via Brandmatt) vervolg vanuit Seebach naar Mummelsee/Hornisgrinde en je hebt het beste van twee werelden!
