A very nice climb: perfectly tarmaced, very little traffic and with a length of 3.7 km not to be sneezed at. The approach leads along the very busy main road and you are glad when you can finally turn right. The climb leads through deciduous forests and is therefore well protected from the sun. The hairpin bend offers a beautiful distant view. The Frankenstein ruins are also a worthwhile destination.... read more

Ein sehr schöner Anstieg: perfekt asphaltiert, recht wenig Verkehr und mit 3.7 km Länge nicht zu verachten. Die Anfahrt führt über die sehr stark befahrene Bundesstraße und man ist froh, wenn man endlich rechts abbiegen kann. Der Anstieg führt durch Laubwälder und ist daher gegen Sonne gut geschützt. In der Serpentine hat man einen schönen Fernblick. Die Ruine Frankenstein lohnt sich auch als Ziel.
