Beautiful climb. Starts with a few easy kilometers, but as soon as you leave the main road, the gradients go up and down. The percentages in the profile above are slightly distorted because the steep part is 3km at over 11% average. It contains several peaks up to 15%. First few kilometers are on a rather busy road, but once you get to the steeper parts it is very quiet.... read more

Didn't do the first flat stretch, the rest was challenging.

Het eerste vlakke stuk niet gedaan, de rest was uitdagend.

A very good climb, the demanding section in the middle is nothing like the figure advertised.
Beware, however, that the section from Spielweg may be frequented, even on the demanding part.

Très bonne montée, la partie exigente au milieu n'a rien à voir comparer au chiffre annoncé.
Attention cependant il est possible que la partie à partir de spielweg soit fréquenté même sur la portion exigente.

Very nice climb that actually starts once you leave the village and turn left up the mountain. This is where the percentages start to count. I found the middle section with continuously 11-15% quite demanding but luckily I could see on my Garmin that the second half would be less difficult. Was at the top within an hour. Nice view at the top. I descended on the other side towards Freiburg. There it became clear how popular this climb on a Saturday morning is for the inhabitants of that city.

Erg mooie beklimming die eigenlijk pas echt begint als je het dorp uit bent en linksaf slaat de berg op. Hier beginnen de percentages te tellen. Middenstuk met continu 11-15% vond ik behoorlijk afzien maar gelukkig kon ik op m'n Garmin zien dat de tweede helft minder zwaar zou worden. Was binnen een uur boven. Mooi uitzicht op de top. Ik daalde af aan de andere kant richting Freiburg. Daar bleek wel hoe populair deze beklimming op een zaterdagochtend is voor de inwoners van die stad.

Prachtige klim. Begint met een paar makkelijke kilometers, maar zodra je de hoofdweg verlaat schieten de stijgingspercentages alle kanten op. De percentages uit bovenstaand profiel vertekenen iets, aangezien het steile deel 3km à ruim 11% gemiddeld is. Hierin zitten diverse uitschieters naar 15%.
Eerste paar kilometer gaat over een redelijk drukke weg, maar zodra je bij de steilere stukken komt is het erg rustig.
