Klim begint in Gerolstein waar je de 'Am Daasberg' in rijdt. Daar zit een pittig steil stukje in van 10 tot 12％ dat zo'n 500 meter lang is. Daarna volgt een stukje dalen/vlakke weg tot het kruispunt voor Gees. Zeker dat stuk uitstekend wegdek en nauwelijks verkeer. De stijgingspercentages zijn vaak te omschrijven met 'vals' plat met uitzondering van een stuk van 10％ halverwege.
