This review mainly refers to the first 3 kilometres. When you turn left in Straz, it immediately becomes steep. And bad. The asphalt becomes more moderate and the road gets steeper, up to 18 a 19％.

This review mainly refers to the first 3 kilometres. When you turn left in Straz, it immediately becomes steep. And bad. The asphalt becomes more moderate and the road gets steeper, up to 18 a 19％. We had to do our best not to fall off the bike, standing is not possible because your rear wheel will slip. Incredibly beautiful challenge.

The rest of the climb is over a lovely runner and climbs gently up to the top of the Ore Mountains. However, should you not like potholes in the road and stretches of loose gravel on the tarmac, do the climb from Srni.

Deze review slaat vooral op de eerste 3 kilometer. Als je in Straz linksaf slaat, wordt het direct steil. En slecht. Het asfalt wordt matiger en de weg wordt steiler, tot 18 a 19％. We moesten ons best doen niet van de fiets te vallen, staan kan niet omdat je achterwiel dan wegslipt. Ontzettend mooie uitdaging.

De rest van de klim gaat over een heerlijke loper en klimt rustig omhoog naar de top van het ertsgebergte. Mocht je echter niet houden van gaten in de weg en stukken los gravel op het asfalt, doe de beklimming dan vanuit Srni.
