Quite a long climb, with challenging moments, but also with stretches where you can take a break going downhill. The scenery is very nice, there is a lot of traffic, but not too bad, and at the top there is a border crossing where passports can be checked and a tunnel leading to Slovenia.

Dość długi podjazd, z wymagającymi momentami, ale również z odcinkami gdzie można odsapnąć jadąc w dół. Sceneria bardzo ładna, spory, ale nietragiczny ruch samochodowy, Na szczycie przejście graniczne, gdzie może być sprawdzany paszport, oraz tunel prowadzący do Słowenii.

Climb cycled on do. 22/8/2024.
Average crowds...occasional periods when some vehicles overtake.
Doable.
Regularly my counter got above 12% which I felt the same way.
Tunnel (approx 2km) to Slovenia quite doable.
Would take lights with you.
As you drive further into Slovenia you get more tunnels.
Also don't forget passport!
In terms of scenery, found it a nice climb.
Especially nature and views in Slovenia I liked better than the Austrian side.

Klim gefietst op do. 22/8/2024.
Gemiddelde drukte…af en toe perioden dat een aantal voertuigen inhalen.
Goed te doen.
Geregeld kwam mijn teller boven de 12% uit wat ik ook zo voelde.
Tunnel (ca 2km) naar Slovenië best te doen.
Zou wel verlichting meenemen.
Als je verder Slovenië inrijdt krijg je meer tunnels.
Ook paspoort niet vergeten!
Vond het qua omgeving een mooie klim.
Vooral natuur en uitzichten in Slovenië vond ik mooier dan Oostenrijkse kant.
