A short climb, but an unusual one. The Blausteinsee is the relict of an old brown coal quarry that has been largely filled in again. The lake has a beach and some facilities such as a café. To get to the start of the climb, you have to descend. You can descend further via a fire road, until you reach the waterline. Then you get about 50 meters of cobblestones and some extra altimeters. From the roundabout, follow the winding road upwards (this is the steepest part) and then turn left on the cycle path that winds its way relaxed upwards. Just after the highest point, there is a nice view of the lake on the left.

Een kleine klim maar wel een aparte. De Blausteinsee is het relict van een oude bruinkoolgroeve die weer grotendeels is opgevuld. Aan het meer ligt een strand en wat voorzieningen zoals een café. Om bij het begin van de klim te komen zal je via het klimtraject moeten afdalen. Je kan via een brandweerweg nog verder afdalen, tot aan de waterlijn. Dan krijg je zo'n 50 meter kasseien en enkele hoogtemeters extra. Vanaf de rotonde de slinger omhoog (dit is het steilste gedeelte) volgen en daarna linksaf het fietspad op dat relaxed verder omhoog slingert. Iets na het hoogste punt heb je links leuk uitzicht op het meer.
