Very nice climb, first two kilometres are really tough and quite a lot of traffic, but after Kammerbach you have the whole mountain to yourself with perfect tarmac. Don't forget to take a photo of the view at Schwalbenthal: you can't see much at the top because of all the trees, unfortunately. Great descent to Velmeden too, nice road to set a speed record :-)... read more

Erg fijne klim, eerste twee kilometer zijn retezwaar en vrij veel verkeer, maar na Kammerbach heb je de hele berg voor je zelf met perfect asfalt. Vergeet niet een foto te maken van het uitzicht bij Schwalbenthal: op de top kan je niet veel zien door alle bomen helaas. Geweldige afdaling naar Velmeden ook, mooie weg om een snelheidsrecord te zetten :-)

Nice crisp climb with a gradient of up to 22％. The road surface is quite good, lighting is advisable as it is quite dark and relatively busy.

Netter knackiger Anstieg mit bis zu 22％ Steigung. Strassenbelag ist recht gut, Beleuchtung ist anzuraten da recht dunkel und doch relativ frequentiert.
