The climb is in two parts with a flat intermediate section, so don't be fooled by the average gradient. The lower section in particular is quite steep, especially the exit from Aulhausen is a real ramp with double-digit gradients. At the bottom, the route leads through a valley out of Assmannshausen, then in the upper section through deciduous forests onto the Taunus plateau.... read more

The climb is in two parts with a flat intermediate section, so don't be fooled by the average gradient.

Der Anstieg ist zweigeteilt mit einem flachen Zwischenstück, deswegen sollte man sich nicht von der durchschnittlichen Steigung täuschen lassen. Vor allem im unteren Teil ist es ordentlich steil, insbesondere die Ausfahrt aus Aulhausen ist eine richtige Rampe mit zweistelligen Steigungen. Unten geht es durch ein Tal aus Assmannshausen heraus, im oberen Teil dann durch Laubwälder auf die Hochebene des Taunus.
