Die Südseite ist sehr gut zu fahren mit dem Rennvelo. Die Strecke war früher auch ein Einzelzeitfahren der Tour de Suisse. Einige Pendler aus dem Thal nutzen den Pass mit dem Auto. Wen das stört, eher nicht von 17:00 bis 18:00 befahren.
LKW dürfen nicht drüber - lediglich ein Postauto fährt. Es kündigt sich mit Hornsignalen an.
A beautiful but strenuous route. You have to watch out for oncoming traffic on the descent. Do not ride the route on a nice weekend, as the road is used by some cars (excursion to the rope park).
schöne, aber anstrengende Strecke. Bei der Abfahrt muss man auf den Gegenverkehr aufpassen. Strecke nicht an einem schönen Wochenende fahren, da die Strasse von einigen PW's befahren wird (Ausflug zum Seilpark).
Nice climb that announces the colour right away 😅 better not to start too fast ... excellent surface and little traffic (used on a Sunday in the middle of the morning) - the descent to Welschenrhor is on the other hand an ordeal, standing on the brakes on a road in very bad condition and steeper on this slope
Belle montée qui annonce tout de suite la couleur 😅 mieux vaut ne pas partir trop vite … excellent revêtement et peu de circulation (emprunté un dimanche en milieu de matinée) - la descente sur Welschenrhor est par contre un calvaire, debout sur les freins sur une route en très mauvais état et plus pentu sur ce versant.
