Very steep climb with percentages above 10-12%, with no respite, and with sections over 15%. The road isn't very wide but the surface is excellent, except for the last stretch between Brach and Sohlbeg, where you have to be careful on the descent. The route takes place in the shade of the forest. This is the most difficult of the 4 climbs up to the Sohlberg.... read more

Very steep climb with percentages above 10-12%, with no respite, and with sections over 15%.

This is the most difficult of the 4 climbs up to the Sohlberg.

Montée très raide avec des pourcentages au-dessus de 10-12%, sans répit, et avec des passages à plus de 15%.
La route n'est pas très large mais le revêtement est excellent, sauf le dernier tronçon entre Brach et le Sohlbeg, où il faut être attentif à la descente.
Le parcours se déroule à l'ombre en forêt.
C'est la montée la plus difficile parmi les 4 qui montent au Sohlberg.
