Tough climb! Good tarmac, but the climb is a lot harder and steeper than the climbing profile shows here. Some parts of the climb don't go below 10％ and at the end there are some walls of +16％, the last one doesn't seem to stop at the village Krn itself. Tip: very nice hiking trails above from the car park! Also in Lades at the foot there is water to be found if you refill your water bottle.

Taaie klim! Prima asfalt, maar de klim is een stuk zwaarder en steiler dan het klimprofiel hier laat zien. Je komt hele stukken niet onder de 10％ en als klap op de vuurpijl heb je een paar muren van +16％, waarvan de laatste bij het dorpje Krn zelf niet lijkt op te houden.

Tip: erg mooie wandelroutes boven vanuit de parkeerplaats! Tevens in Lades aan de voet is er water te vinden mocht je je bidon bijvullen. Niet bij het fonteintje aan de weg, maar er tegenover schuin een soort oprit oplopen en daar vind je een kraantje!

Beautiful, but very heavy climb. The tarmac is excellent, but the roads are narrow and in the morning (up) and in the afternoon (down) you will encounter a few cars of people who are going to hike to the Krn.

You have to return the same way, but that's no punishment.

Mooie, maar hele zware klim. Het asfalt is uitstekend, maar de wegen zijn smal en in de ochtend (naar boven) en in de middag (naar beneden) kom je wel een paar auto’s tegen van mensen die naar de Krn gaan hiken.

Je moet dezelfde weg terug, maar da’s geen straf.
