The start is very steep, but after a few bends it gets easier. Nice landscape, comparable to the Dickenbruch - only a little easier.

Left past the church and then further on you see the road rising and an easily passed zigzag fence. Just to the left and then diagonally right and then the fun really starts as you see the road going up fast. Along the houses the road keeps going up and then after the last house it flattens out for a few metres, but then it happily continues well into the double digits, following a beautiful and slightly winding road through the greenery. The percentages remain hefty until just before the end after which it suddenly flattens out and you are at the top (you can continue on tarmac, through beautiful scenery). For such a small road, the asphalt is pretty good. A lovely calf-biter, then.
