A marvellous ascent over steady roads. The road is somewhat steeper in the lower, panoramic part, while it becomes somewhat flatter in the upper, wooded part. The road surface is perfectly fine, but you have to be a little more careful in a few places. A highly recommended climb!... read more

A marvellous ascent over steady roads. The road is somewhat steeper in the lower, panoramic part, while it becomes somewhat flatter in the upper, wooded part. The road surface is perfectly fine, but you have to be a little more careful in a few places. A highly recommended climb!

Traumhafter Anstieg über konstante Straßen. Die Straße ist im unteren, aussichtsreichen Teil etwas steiler, während sie im oberen, waldigen Teil etwas flacher wird. Der Straßenbelag ist völlig in Oednung, an wenigen Stellen muss man aber etwas vorsichtiger sein. Sehr zu empfehlender Anstieg!
