Evenly steep ascent without recovery sections. Very little traffic. Narrow road with good surface. Great views of the lake and Rigi. An inn awaits at Gätterli.

Gleichmässig steiler Anstieg ohne Erholungsabschnitte. Sehr wenig Verkehr. Enge Strasse mit gutem Belag. Tolle Aussicht auf See und Rigi. Am Gätterli wartet ein Gasthaus.
