This climb is quite long. The climb from Winkel to Johannisberg is a tough one, and the first stretch out of Johannisberg through the Rheingau vineyards is also quite demanding. Further up, the gradient eases and the road leads through beautiful pastures and meadows. At the top, you are rewarded with beautiful views over the Taunus.... read more

Dieser Anstieg ist schön lang. Der Anstieg von Winkel nach Johannisberg hat es in sich, und auch das erste Stück aus Johannisberg heraus gerade durch die Rheingauer Weinberge verlangt einem einiges ab. Weiter oben lässt die Steigung nach und die Straße führt durch schöne Weiden und Wiesen. Im oberen Bereich wird man durch sehr schöne Ausblicke über den Taunus belohnt.
