A very long and varied climb with largely even gradients and therefore very easy to ride. However, the road becomes narrower and narrower, lonelier and worse and worse the further up you go. At the bottom, the route passes through a populated area; further up, you cycle alone through the deciduous forest. The destination is a telecommunications mast, unfortunately without a clear view...... read more

Ein sehr langer und vielseitiger Anstieg mit weitestgehend gleichmäßigen Steigungen und daher sehr gut zu fahren. Die Straße wird allerdings immer schmaler, immer einsamer und immer schlechter, je weiter man nach oben kommt.
Unten geht es durch besiedeltes Gebiet, weiter oben fährt man alleine durch den Laubwald. Das Ziel ist ein Fernmeldemast, leider ohne Fernsicht...
