Nice climb, long straight ahead for your liking. The tarmac until Tellerhäuser is not fantastic, after that very good. Climb is irregular with very steep sections up to 14 ％. At the end, turn left up the Fichtelberg with several more steep sections and very nice views of the surrounding area.... read more

Leuke beklimming, voor je gevoel lang rechtdoor. Het asfalt tot Tellerhäuser is niet fantastisch, daarna wel heel goed. Klim is onregelmatig met zeer steile stukken tot 14 ％. Aan het einde linksaf de Fichtelberg op met nog een aantal steile stukken en een heel mooi uitzicht over de omgeving.
