Did this climb last year, from Grabs. Then you join somewhere at two thirds and cycle the last 2.5 kilometers of the real climb still. Very nice climb, long views of the Rhine valley and rock formations on the ridge north of you. The climb from Grabs starts a bit steeper and connects to the main road after a short descent.

Did this climb last year, from Grabs. Then you join somewhere at two thirds and cycle the last 2.5 kilometers of the real climb still. Very nice climb, long views of the Rhine valley and rock formations on the ridge north of you. The climb from Grabs starts a bit steeper and connects to the main road after a short descent.

Tip for the editors: Wildhaus is written with a d instead of a t.

Vorig jaar deze klim gedaan, vanuit Grabs. Dan sluit je ergens op tweederde aan en fiets je de laatste 2,5 kilometer van de echte klim nog. Heel mooie beklimming, lang uitzicht op het Rijndal en op rotsformaties op de bergkam ten noorden van je. Ook wel fikse stijgingspercentages, de klim vanuit Grabs begint wat steiler en sluit na een korte afdaling op de grote weg aan.

Tipje voor de redactie: Wildhaus schrijf je met een d in plaats van een t.
