A very nice climb, with very nice views especially in the first half. The climb is nice and flat, so once you are in a nice cadence and can keep it up, it is enjoyable.
The climb is 80％ unsheltered though, so if the weather is hot, make sure you have plenty of water. There are no refill points along the way

Nice climb, not super steep. Nice to combine it with the Mittelbergpass (and even the Jaunpass from Garstatt) to form a loop

Consistent gradient, little traffic, good road surface. Beautiful descent to Gruyeres. Loved it, but I wished I had a smaller gear.
