A nice long climb in the Black Forest. A lot quieter than the climb to Zuflugt which runs parallel, although the last part is together on the main road. Percentages are steep at various times, but at no point too hard with plenty of sections where it flattens out a bit. I did this climb on a very hot day and that was a mistake. A number of sections are nicely in the sun, or the forest is well warmed up in the middle of the day.... read more

A nice long climb in the Black Forest. A lot quieter than the climb to Zuflugt which runs parallel, although the last part is together on the main road.

I did this climb on a very hot day and that was a mistake. A number of sections are nicely in the sun, or the forest is well warmed up in the middle of the day.

Een mooie lange beklimming in het Zwarte Woud. Een stuk rustige dan de beklimming naar Zuflugt die parallel loopt, al is het laatste stuk tezamen over de grote weg.
Percentages zijn op verschillende momenten steil, maar op geen moment te zwaar met voldoende stukken waar het wat afvlakt.
Ik deed deze beklimming op een zeer warme dag en dat was een vergissing. Een aantal stukken liggen aardig in de zon, danwel is het bos goed opgewarmd midden op de dag.
