Slovakia's iconic climb. Čierny váh is a great training spot. Minimal traffic and a beautiful panorama of the Tatra Mountains at the end. It's gorgeous there.

The climb itself is not scenic or interesting, but it is worth it for the beautiful panorama of the Tatra Mountains. The asphalt is fine for the most part, but there are some places with potholes and gravel, so be careful.
