Prachtige lange kronkelende klim die voor een groot deel over een goede kasseien/klinkerweg voert. Onderweg een paar mooie uitzichtpunten op de Donau en Klosterneuburg. Kan in het weekend wel wat drukker zijn vanwege toeristisch verkeer naar de top. Een tussenstop bij het panoramaterras bij de Leopoldskerk is een absolute aanrader!
