It is difficult to rate the climb appropriately. It is actually quite beautiful, but has slightly fewer views to offer than the alternatives in the neighbourhood. After the first third, the tarmac is excellent and the road rather quiet. However, these plus points are largely cancelled out by the fact that the approach through the town is very unpleasant. If you live close by, 4/5; if you are travelling from further away through city traffic, only a 2.5/5.... read more

Es ist schwierig, den Anstieg angemessen zu bewerten. Er ist eigentlich ziemlich schön, hat aber etwas weniger Ausblick zu bieten, als die Alternativen in der Nähe. Nach den ersten drittel ist der Aspahlt hervorragend und die Straße eher ruhig. Diese Pluspunkte werden aber zu einem großen Teil dadurch zunichte gemacht, dass die Anfahrt durch die Stadt sehr unschön ist. Wenn man in der Nähe wohnt 4/5. Bei Anfahrt von weiter weg durch den Stadtverkehr nur eine 2.5/5.
