The first climb I rode in Switzerland. It always takes some getting used to. It is not an easy climb but there are some moments where your legs get some rest. The first part is the same as the climb to Engstlenalp. Fairly wide road and some traffic. At a certain point, you turn left and then it gets narrower, steeper and a lot quieter. Unfortunately, it was foggy in my case, so I don't know if the view is nice. The tarmac is good and the descent after it seemed to me a nice climb to do. ... read more

De eerste klim die ik ben opgereden in Zwitserland. Het is altijd wel weer even wennen. Het is geen makkelijke klim maar er zijn wel wat momenten waar je benen even wat rust krijgen.
Het eerste deel is hetzelfde als de klim naar Engstlenalp. Redelijk brede weg en wat verkeer. Op een gegeven moment sla je links af en dan wordt het smaller, steiler en een heel stuk rustiger. Helaas was het bij mij mistig, dus of het uitzicht mooi is weet ik niet. Het asfalt is goed en de afdaling erna leek mij ook als beklimming leuk om te doen.

Beautiful climb where you see almost no cars. You literally cycle in a beautiful natural environment. Extremely suitable for cyclists with a road bike, because there is so little traffic. If you like peace and quiet you are definitely in the right place.

Mooi beklimming waar je bijna geen auto's ziet. Je fietst letterlijk in een mooie natuurlijke omgeving. Uitermate geschikt voor fietsers met een racefiets, omdat er dus zo weinig verkeer is. Als je van rust houdt ben je daar zeker op je plaats.
