What a great section for downhill and climbing. I am from Peterslahr direction Borscheid. First it goes neatly up the mountain, then comes the steep descent to Altenhütte. If it's wet here you have to be careful. Nice little valley. Then go up to Borscheid incl, a few hairpin bends.

within a few kilometers you have everything: rapid descent, brutal incline, switchbacks, great views, little traffic.

I drove the route from Borscheid towards Peterslahr. The descent to Altenhütte by racing bike is really borderline. Holey broken asphalt. From Altenhütte it gets better. Maybe to recommend the other way around - I won't drive it around again ...
