Green, cool and very peaceful. You won't find that many asphalted, car-free climbs here, but this calm green oasis should not be missed. The road surface is - typically German for this kind of back roads - not great, but it is doable while climbing. You climb along the Holzbach, which you see often enough - along moss-covered stones and trees. At the end, you come out to a busier road, where you'll find a raptor centre at the top.... read more

Groen, koel en heel rustig.

Zo heel veel autovrije beklimmingen met asfalt vind je hier niet, maar deze kalme knettergroene oase mag niet ontbreken. Het wegdek is - typisch Duits voor dit soort achterafweggetjes - niet geweldig, maar al klimmend prima te doen. Je klimt langs de Holzbach, die je vaak genoeg - langs met mos beklede stenen en bomen - ziet lopen. Aan het einde kom je uit bij een drukkere weg, waar je op de top een roofvogelcentrum treft.
