Nice quiet road through the forest. This area is fairly touristy, but if you are lucky you can imagine yourself alone in the world for a while here.... read more

Nice quiet road through the forest. This area is fairly touristy, but if you are lucky you can imagine yourself alone in the world for a while here.

Mooie rustige weg door het bos. Dit gebied is redelijk toeristisch, maar als je geluk hebt dan kun je je hier even alleen op de wereld wanen.

One of the finest climbs I have done in Germany. The first part of this climb is a quiet road anyway , but from the Rennweg the road becomes completely car-free. Moreover, you have very nice views at the top here. Furthermore, almost perfect tarmac and a great training for long climbs; good to combine with Schmidt (from Nideggen) and Vossenack, but both don't measure up to this climb in terms of beauty/views and tranquillity!

Eén van de fijnste klimmetjes die ik heb gedaan in Duitsland. Het eerste deel van deze klim is sowieso al een rustige weg , maar vanaf de Rennweg wordt de weg helemaal autovrij. Bovendien heb je heel mooie uitzichten op de top hier. Verder nagenoeg perfect asfalt en een prima training voor lange klimmetjes; goed te combineren met Schmidt (vanuit Nideggen) en Vossenack, maar beide halen het niet qua schoonheid/uitzichten en rust met deze klim!

On all counts, a delightful climb. The first section on the link road has excellent tarmac and meanders nicely up through beautiful scenery. As you leave the road and enter the small tarmac road it rises nicely for a while and after the bend you see a long straight road ahead. You know that the end of that road is also pretty much the end of the climb but then it's still hard work because the road goes up and down a lot with constantly changing percentages. Quite a runner but the scenery and the beautiful vistas make up for a lot. After the next bend is soon the top of the climb.

Op alle vlakken een heerlijke klim. Het eerste deel over de verbindingsweg heeft uitstekend asfalt en slingert door een mooie omgeving lekker omhoog. Als je de weg verlaat en het kleine asfaltweggetje in gaat loopt het even leuk op en na de bocht zie je een lange rechte weg voor je. Je weet dat het einde van die weg ook vrijwel het einde van de klim is maar dan is het nog best wel aanpoten want de weg gaat flink op en neer met continue wisselende percentages. Best een sloper maar de omgeving en de prachtige doorkijkjes maken veel goed. Na de volgende bocht is al snel de top van de klim.

For me, this climb is a dream to ride, especially in spring or autumn. On a perfect, low-traffic road, the route first leads through the forest, after turning onto a cycle path at a car park, the route continues undulating for a few kilometres towards Großhau.

Für mich ist dieser Anstieg vor allem im Frühling oder Herbst traumhaft zu fahren. Auf einer perfekten, verkehrsarmen Straße geht es zunächst durch den Wald, nachdem man auf einem Parkplatz auf einen Radweg abbiegen, geht es noch einige Kilometer wellig in Richtung Großhau.

Last time I was there (last fall), the entire main road was repaved...German asphalt quality. From the parking lot you end up on a kind of Vennbahn of lesser quality, but quite doable.

Laatste keer dat ik er geweest ben (vorig najaar) is de gehele hoofdweg opnieuw geasfalteerd...Duitse asfalt kwaliteit. Vanaf de parking kom je op een soort vennbahn van mindere kwaliteit terecht, maar best doenbaar.

Nice long climb, quite irregular, but nowhere really steep. At the start of the climb the going gets tough, but after a few hundred metres the going gets easier. The road surface on this first part is bad, with lots of holes and cracks. When the road bends to the left you turn right into a parking lot and at the end it turns into a car-free road. The tarmac here is much better, although there may be some remnants of felled trees on the road. The first part of this second part is still quite steep, then it goes step by step up to the top. If you continue to Grosshau it goes up and down until you reach the village.

Lekker lange klim, redelijk onregelmatig, maar nergens echt steil. Bij het opdraaien van de klim begint het meteen stevig op te lopen, maar naar een paar honderd meter vlakt het af. Het wegdek op dit eerste deel is slecht, met veel gaten en scheuren. Op het moment dat de weg een bocht naar links maakt sla je rechtsaf een parkeerplaats op die aan het einde overgaat in een auto vrije weg. Het asfalt wordt hier een stuk beter, al kunnen er wel wat restanten van gekapte bomen op de weg liggen. Het eerste stuk van dit tweede deel is nog redelijk steil, daarna gaat het trapsgewijs omhoog tot de top. Als je doorfietst tot Grosshau blijft het op en neer gaan tot het dorp.
