A short climb on a good road with little traffic. The gradients are not difficult and the route is through woodland. There's a good view of Fleckenstein if you turn left at the Col du Litschhof to the Hotel-Restaurant du Gimbelhof.... read more

A short climb on a good road with little traffic.

There's a good view of Fleckenstein if you turn left at the Col du Litschhof to the Hotel-Restaurant du Gimbelhof.

Courte montée sur une bonne route avec peu de circulation.
Les pourcentages ne sont pas difficiles et le trajet se déroule en forêt.
Belle vue sur le Fleckenstein si au col du Litschhof vous tournez à gauche jusqu'à l'hôtel-restaurant du Gimbelhof.
