Very quiet, though heavy. Never really runs smoothly. With us, the gravel path downhill was just re-strewn with sharp stones, so had to walk. May be we didn't go along the right path. Small stretch, still fine.... read more

Heel rustig, wel zwaar. Loopt nooit echt lekker. Bij ons was het gravelpad omlaag net opnieuw bezaaid met scherpe stenen, dus moeten lopen. Kan zijn dat we niet langs het goede pad zijn gegaan. Klein stukje, alsnog prima.

Most beautiful climb we've done in the Black Forest. No traffic, hairpins, forests and Alpine meadows. Descending towards Bernau/Todtmoos is possible (and beautiful!) via a not too steep gravel path of about three kilometres.

Mooiste beklimming die we gedaan hebben in het Zwarte Woud. Geen verkeer, haarspelden, bossen en Alpenweides. Afdalen richting Bernau/Todtmoos is mogelijk (en prachtig!) via een niet al te steil gravelpad van een kilometer of drie.
