It’s a good route for descending, as it’s a well-maintained, four-lane federal highway. However, traffic can be relatively heavy depending on the time of day, so it’s only recommended to a limited extent for ascending—especially since there are more scenic alternatives with less traffic.

Als Abfahrt gut nutzbar, da es sich um eine gut ausgebaute 4 Spurige Bundesstraße handelt. Verkehr kann je nach Tageszeit allerdings relativ hoch sein, deswegen als Aufstieg nur bedingt zu empfehlen, vorallem da es verkehrsärmere schönere Alternativen gibt. Der Straßenbelag ist in gutem Zustand.

Nice tarmac, and very wide road, 4 lanes everywhere, so you have little trouble with the rather busy road. Cars overtake you very well. Runs very nice, and last kilometre you can still hard work to come up. As a descent also very nice, you do not have to touch the brakes, no sharp turns.

Mooi asfalt, en zeer brede weg, overal 4 baans, hierdoor heb je weinig last van de best wel drukke weg. Auto’s halen je zeer ruim in. Loopt heel mooi, en laatste kilometer mag je nog even flink aan de bak om boven te komen. Als afdaling ook erg mooi, je hoeft de remmen niet aan te raken, geen scherpe bochten.

Steady climb with no steep sections. Although there was a fair amount of traffic, the road has 2 lanes going up for most of the ride (road works a third of the way restrict the road for 500 metres) so traffic has plenty of room to pass you.
