A very long climb but not steep so the ride is pleasant.

A long climb, with not too steep an incline, but its length can be slightly tiring. The vast majority of the climb is among trees, but almost all the time we have a view of Kriváň in front of us.

The climbs look like a false flat on the map, but is really long and can be tought, when the headwind from mountains is not on tour side. Great surface, a lot of roadworks done recently. Also there is a nice view of Tatra mountains.
