Schöner Anstieg, am Ende nochmals knackig mit über 10％. Wenig Verkehr Anfang März

Nice climb from Wenns. Fine runner that gets quite steep at the end. The summit is not very clearly marked, you'll find the nice view a bit further on. The descent to Prutz is lovely. Beautiful views and good tarmac.

Coming from Imst, the road is already about 7 kilometres uphill, covering some'250 altimeters. This goes over a big busy road, not directly recommended.

Mooi klim vanuit Wenns. Prima loper die op het einde nog aardig steil wordt. De top is niet heel duidelijk aangegeven, het mooie uitzicht vind je iets verder door. De afdaling naar Prutz is heerlijk. Mooie vergezichten en goed asfalt.

Als je vanuit Imst komt loopt de weg al een kilometer of 7 bergop, waarbij je zo'n 250 hoogtemeters overbrugt. Dit gaat over een grote drukke weg, niet direct aan te raden.

We are going to ride a stage from Oetz to NAuders with a group of 20 people. The plan is to ride from Arzl to the Pillerhohe. Is that road passable for cyclists? HEt looks like a busy road....

Wij gaan met een groep van 20 man een etappe rijden van Oetz naar NAuders. Plan is om vanaf Arzl naar de Pillerhohe te rijden. Is die weg goed te berijden voor fietsers? HEt ziet er uit als een drukke weg..

The last 2 km come unexpected, area becomes wilder and road narrower, nice end to a nice climb. Panoramic point on top is breathtaking, good Sachertorte at the cafe nearby (closed on Wedensday). Light traffic mostly tourist motorbikes. I found afternoon headwind.

The Pillerhöhe is a magnificent climb. The largest part is certainly not difficult. Only the last three kilometres are quite tough, but doable.
Right from the start, you are treated to views over the fields as you used to see them on postcards from Tyrol. About half way up, the landscape changes and you enter the woods. Here, for the first time, you also have some shade. Once at the top, the view is magnificent. Above the valley is a kind of platform where you can look through the entire valley. So beautiful that it is a bit 'sensory overload'.
The descent on the other side is beautiful. A kilometre or two after the top is a little fountain with stone-cold water.

De Pillerhöhe is een prachtige klim. Het grootste gedeelte is zeker niet moeilijk. Alleen de laatste drie kilometers zijn vrij pittig, maar te doen.
Al vanaf het begin word je getrakteerd op uitzichten over de velden zoals je ze vroeger op ansichtkaarten uit Tirol zag. Op ongeveer de helft van de klim verandert het landschap en rij je de bossen in. Hier heb je voor het eerst ook wat schaduw. Eenmaal boven heb je een prachtig uitzicht. Boven het dal hangt een soort platform waar je door het hele dal kunt kijken. Zo prachtig dat het een beetje 'sensory overload' is.
De afdaling aan de andere kant loopt prachtig. Een kilometer of twee na de top is een fonteintje te vinden met steenkoud water.

This climb is also one of the 1000 from BIGcycling.eu. I did it from Wenns. Not a really difficult climb.
The other two sides are much harder. But if you come up from this side then there is a surprise at the top. The view is really phenomenal. One of the most beautiful panorama points in the Alps I dare say. If you are in the neighborhood you should definitely go up here.

Deze klim is er ook één in de lijst van 1000 van BIGcycling.eu. Ik heb die gedaan vanuit Wenns. Geen echt moeilijke klim.
De andere twee zijden zijn veel lastiger. Maar als je dan boven komt van deze zijde dan is er op de top een verrassing. Het uitzicht is er werkelijk fenomenaal. Eén van de mooiste panorama punten in de alpen durf ik wel te zeggen. Als je in de buurt bent moet je hier zeker naar boven.
