The first part up to Sigriswil is on a wide road and the climb is of medium difficulty. After a few metres of flat road, the really tough part begins. The profile doesn't show the real difficulty of the climb. Before the junction between the two variants (Zelgmühle or Züntihohle) there are 20-30 metres at 30 ％ (!!!) gradient (impossible, at least for me, to stay on the bike). And after that the road continues to climb with an irregular gradient between the pastures and on a narrow road (watch out for the gravel that makes it difficult to grip in the steepest points). A really hard climb.
