The path was freshly graveled in the upper section between the street and the top farm. Unfortunately, relatively generous. So rather with thicker tires than on the usual trekking bike.

Basically a really beautiful valley and therefore actually a good alternative to the main road. However, the last stretch (approx. 1km) is extremely difficult to drive, not only because it is very steep (determined on average around 18-19, with sections that go well over 20), but because the gravel is so coarse that you actually can't get out of the saddle spinning rear wheel (even with my 50mm tires). So only recommended to a limited extent for gravel and trekking bikes. However, MTB riders should be able to get up reasonably well with their small gears in the saddle.
