Pretty steep climb with strips of 12-15％. Asphalt is pretty good, nice views on top. Much of the climb is in the forest which makes it doable in summer. Hardly any traffic... read more

Behoorlijk steile klim met stroken van 12-15％. Asfalt is behoorlijk goed, bovenop mooi uitzicht. Groot deel van de klim is in het bos wat het in de zomer goed te doen maakt. Nauwelijks verkeer

Very steep climb!!! It starts steep and stays steep. Fortunately regular shade under the trees along the way. Unfortunately moderate to poor road surface though. Many melted asphalt spots that "were repaired" with loose gravel. As a result, the descent was not comfortable.

Just a fat climb to ride, though. And the view at the top is well worth it!

Zeer stevige klim!! Hij begint steil en blijft steil. Gelukkig onderweg regelmatig schaduw onder de bomen. Helaas wel matig tot slecht wegdek. Veel gesmolten asfaltplekken die "gerepareerd" zijn met los grind. De afdaling was daardoor niet comfortabel.

Wel gewoon een vette klim om te rijden. En het uitzicht bovenop is zeer de moeite waard!

A very tough climb up to 1837 metres. Ventoux is a walk in the park

Ein sehr harter Anstieg bis auf 1837 m . Ventoux ist dagegen ein Spaziergang

If you start the climb from Feistritz, you will be treated to a beautiful climb through the village of Berg in Drautal; a village that is not named like that for nothing ;-). A steep climb (around 10 percent on average) with smooth tarmac, little traffic and beautiful views of the valley!

Als je de beklimming vanuit Feistritz begint, wordt je nog getrakteerd op een prachtige klim via het dorpje Berg in Drautal; een dorp dat niet voor niets zo genoemd is ;-). Pittige klim (tegen de 10 procent gemiddeld) met strak asfalt, weinig verkeer en prachtig uitzicht op het dal!

Nice climb, especially for cooling down between the trees. At the top, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the Gailtaler Alps and the Drau Valley.

Leuk klim, vooral voor de verkoeling tussen de bomen door. Op de top kun je genieten van prachtuitzicht over Gailtaler Alpen en Drauvallei.
