You have to pedal at an average gradient of over 12% over the 4 km to the top of the pass. The last kilometer is no longer asphalted and with too little tread on the rear wheel you occasionally have to push because the rear wheel can spin in the soft gravel when it gets very steep.

With an e-bike it can be fun, but everyone else has to suffer.

Very steep and relatively long, you should bring enough water and food with you.
