Depending on the time of day (and probably season), the road is very busy. There is a lot of shunting traffic, especially through the car parks on the right. On top of that, there are the mountain bikers whizzing down the hill at high speed. And then there are the families who walk across the road with all their children to the Panorama Bridge Trail or to the mini-golf course. On a Sunday afternoon with good weather, it is almost impossible to get through here.... read more

Je nach Tageszeit (und wahrscheinlich Jahreszeit) ist die Straße sehr stark befahren. Vor allem durch die Parkplätze auf der rechten Seite herrscht viel Rangierverkehr. Dazu kommen noch die Mountainbiker, die mit hohem Tempo den Hügel heruntersausen. Und dann gibt es noch die Familien, die mit Kind und Kegel zum Panorama-Brücken-Weg oder zum Minigolfplatz über die Straße spazieren. An einem Sonntag-Nachmittag mit schönem Wetter ist hier kaum ein Durchkommen möglich.

Short dead-end climb to the top of the Kappe (restaurant, activities). What you see is what you get because when you drive up, you can see almost the entire climb already and it looks somewhat impressive because the road does go up quite steeply. Just sprint up and soak it up is the motto. Excellent tarmac.

Korte doodlopende klim naar de top van de Kappe (restaurant, véél activiteiten zoals allerlei MTB-downhillroutes). What you see is what you get want bij het aanrijden zie je vrijwel de gehele klim al liggen en dat zit er toch enigszins indrukwekkend uit want de weg loopt toch wel steil omhoog. Even omhoog sprinten en zo even meepakken is het devies (of daarna gaan downhillen als je een geschikte fiets hebt). Uitstekend asfalt.
