An extremely steep but fortunately very short climb of around 300 metres with permanent percentages in the 2-digit range. The road surface through the residential area is fine. Very strenuous, but recommended.
Extrem steiler aber zum Glück mit seinen ca 300 Metern sehr kurzer Anstieg mit dauerhaften Prozenten im 2-stelligen Bereich. Der Strassenbelag durchs Wohngebiet ist in Ordnung. Sehr anstrengend, aber empfehlenswert.
What an extraordinary climb! In terms of the surroundings, the climb is nothing special. However, this is also irrelevant as you only have to focus on the climbing. The climb itself is constantly steep and you have to work hard for 300 metres.
Was für ein außergewöhnlicher Anstieg! Von der Umgebung her ist der Anstieg nichts besonderes. Allerdings ist das auch nebensächlich, da man sich nur auf das Klettern fokussieren muss. Der Anstieg selber ist konstant steil und man muss sich über 300 Meter sehr abmühen.
A must-do if you are around here. If you live here and have a car you should practice the slope test because what a steep road (descending is not allowed). On the left side it is nice and green, so in terms of looks it is pretty nice too. But that is not the reason for doing this one, to let your upper legs explode in a climb which feels much longer than it is. The end point is visible only late (and there the percentage decreases a bit) and until then you have to choose between sitting (not enough power) and standing (slipping rear wheel).
There are more (extremely) steep climbs in the area.
Een must-do als je hier in de buurt bent. Als je hier woont en een auto hebt mag je wel goed oefenen met de hellingproef want wat een knalsteile weg (afdalen niet toegestaan trouwens). Aan de linkerkant is deze nog mooi groen ook dus qua looks is deze ook nog wel aardig. Maar daar doe je deze niet voor, wel om je bovenbenen uit elkaar te laten spatten in een klim die veel langer aanvoelt dan dat deze is. Het eindpunt zie je pas laat (en daar neemt het percentage ook al iets af) en tot die tijd is het stampen en kiezen tussen zitten (niet voldoende kracht) en staan (slippend achterwiel).
In de omgeving zijn trouwens wel meer (extreem) steile klimmetjes.
