A very beautiful ascent into the Jura. The narrow forest road above the village has a good surface. There is no through traffic, only a service area and hikers. The even gradient is very easy to ride, the path leads through coniferous and deciduous forest. An idyllic view rewards you at the top.... read more

Ein sehr schöner Aufstieg in den Jura. Die schmale Waldstraße oberhalb des Ortes hat guten Belag. Es gibt keinen Durchgangsverkehr, einzig einen Rasthof und Wanderer. Die gleichmäßige Steigung lässt sich sehr gut fahren, der Weg führt durch Nadel- und Laubwald. Ein idyllischer Ausblick belohnt einen oben.
