A climb which I think you should not miss. You climb from a valley up, when you cycle into the forest it gets really heavy, and you will hit the 11 percent. Once you come out of the forest, a magnificent view awaits you. You cycle just below the mountain tops of the Rhon mountains, so on your left side you cycle just below the mountain tops and on your right side you enjoy a magnificent view because you cycle on the highest point in the wide area.

A climb which I think you should not miss. You climb from a valley up, when you cycle into the forest it gets really heavy, and you will hit the 11 percent. Once you come out of the forest, a magnificent view awaits you. You cycle just below the mountain tops of the Rhon mountains, so on your left side you cycle just below the mountain tops and on your right side you enjoy a magnificent view because you cycle on the highest point in the wide area. You can enjoy the view for a long time because the road stays at the altitude for about 15 km before you can start the descent.

Een beklimming die je volgens mij niet mag missen. Je klimt vanaf een dal omhoog, wanneer je het bos in fietst wordt het toch echt even zwaar, en tik je even de 11 procent. Als je eenmaal uit de bos komt dan staat je een schitterend uitzicht te wachten. Je fietst namelijk net onder de bergtoppen van de Rhon gebergte, waardoor je aan je linkerkant net onder de bergtoppen fietst en aan je rechterkant geniet je van een schitterend uitzicht want je fietst op de hoogste punt in de wijde omgeving. Je kunt lang genieten van de uitzicht want de weg blijft nog ongeveer 15 km lang op de hoogte voordat je kan beginnen aan de afdaling.
