The Eltenberg has multiple ways of climbing it... but the most special way is by far this gravel climb up the hill. The gravel section won't bring you all the way to the top, so there's a bit more climbing after this, or take a left at the top and descent the 'klinkers' descent to the west where you kind of came from.
The gravel itself is roughed up and loose, but for those who ain't afraid, it's ridable on road racers.

Truly beautiful climb up the Eltenerberg. Fun fact: Elten is named after Altum (which means altitude). With it's 80m height it is not an Alpine giant by any means, but it is one of the heighest hills in the region with plenty of paths and roads crossing it!
