Coming from Tawern, the entrance to the Metzenberg is easy to find. In the lower part, there are some drainage channels for water, which can be slippery in wet conditions.
The tarmac is good and the gradient remains moderate throughout. There is hardly any car traffic on the route. You pass through a section of forest with sandstone formations, which is very beautiful. At the top of the short climb is a replica of a Roman temple complex, which is well worth seeing. The tarmac path ends there, so you have to turn round or use a gravel bike to cycle towards Onsdorf (also a very beautiful route).
Von Tawern her kommend ist der Einstieg in den Metzenberg leicht zu finden. Im unteren Teil gibt est einige Ablaufrinnen für Wasser, die bei feuchten Bedingungen rutschig sein können.
Der Asphalt ist gut und die Steigung bleibt durchgehend moderat. Es gibt kaum Autoverkehr auf der Strecke. Man durchfährt ein Waldstück mit Sandsteinformationen, das sehr schön ist. Oben auf dem kurzen Anstieg steht die Nachbildung einer römischen Tempelanlage, die sehenswert ist. Dort endet der asphaltierte Weg, insofern muss man wenden oder ein Gravelbike nutzen um Richtung Onsdorf zu fahren (auch eine sehr schöne Strecke).
The Roman temple complex in Tawern is of course a highlight of the region. It's nice that there is a fairly good road leading up there. The tarmac is ok, there is almost no traffic and the climb is manageable. If you are in the neighbourhood, you can climb the mountain quickly.
Die Römische Tempelanlage in Tawern ist natürlich ein Highlight der Region. Schön, dass dort ein recht guter Weg hinaufführt. Die Teerdecke ist ok, fast kein Verkehr, der Anstieg machbar. Wenn man in der Nähe ist, kann man den Berg schnell erklimmen.
