A pleasant, long climb on a good road. The traffic is not too heavy apart from on public holidays and weekends. The start of the climb from Barr is clearly the most difficult part, but it's still accessible. The second part (last 13 km) is more rolling. At the summit, there's a lovely viewpoint. ... read more

The highest point in Bas-Rhin. A regular and pleasantly long climb. The steepest part is clearly in the stretch once you leave Barr and turn right, but not too crazy in terms of percentages. Wooded, but towards the top a nice panorama over Alsace. End at the well-known watchtower, a monument from 1898.

Het hoogste punt in Bas-Rhin. Een regelmatige en aangename lange klim. Het steilste gedeelte zit duidelijk in het stuk zodra je Barr uitrijdt en rechtsaf slaat, maar qua percentages niet al te gek. Bosrijk, maar richting de top een mooi panorama over de Elzas. Eindpunt bij welbekende uitkijktoren, een monument uit 1898.

A fine climb almost all the time under the cover of trees, except at the very end. Some lovely views over the Alsace plain. Done at 7:30 on a Saturday morning, with virtually no traffic. Excellent surface.

Belle montée presque en permanence sous le couvert des arbres, excepté à la toute fin. Quelques belles vues sur la plaine d’Alsace. Effectuée à 7:30 un samedi matin, quasi aucune circulation. Revêtement excellent.

The start of the climb from Barr is clearly the most difficult part, but it's still accessible. The second part (last 13 km) is more rolling.
At the summit, there's a lovely viewpoint.

Ascension agréable, longue avec une bonne route. Le trafic n'est pas trop chargé hormis les jours chômés et les Week-end.
Le début de la monté depuis Barr est clairement la partie la plus difficile, elle reste tout de même accessible. La deuxième partie (13 derniers km) sont plus roulant.
Arrivé au sommet, on accède à un joli point de vu.
