The best thing about the climb is the destination: the Ludwigshöhe with its observatory and Ludwigsturm tower is a very beautiful place above Darmstadt. The restaurant and the lovely outdoor seating are perfect for a break during the tour. The climb is short and has a very poor road surface at the bottom. Above the car park, the narrow road winds its way up, which is nice, but very short...... read more

Das schönste am Anstieg ist das Ziel: die Ludwigshöhe mit Sternwarte und Ludwigsturm ist ein sehr schöner Platz oberhalb Darmstadts. Das Ausflugslokal und die schönen Sitzgelegenheiten im Freien sind perfekt für eine Pause während der Tour. Der Anstieg ist kurz und hat unten sehr schlechten Straßenbelag. Oberhalb des Parkplatzes windet sich die schmale Straße hinauf, das ist schön, aber sehr kurz...
