Great road bike driveway to Ruit, the 4 hairpin bends create a bit of a pass feeling :) The first part goes through the steady slope, the 4 hairpin bends and the beautiful view by itself, whereas the second part is an unrhythmic, at times quite steep straight and at the end again really costs grains. As a descent, the route is only partially recommended due to the moderate surface and sloping rain gutters (which, however, hardly disturb the driveway).

Nice climb, sometimes demanding. Beginners should expect to have to go down in between. It's better to go slowly up the slope, it can pull itself a bit. Except for a few potholes, pebbles and coils of water (these steel channels that are built into the ground across the path) you can drive up relatively carelessly.

in 4 switchbacks it goes very steeply from the Neckar valley to the height of Ruit. A really nice gem if you've been to the lively Neckar valley before.

Great climb, but not recommended as a descent with the RR. Then better via Hedelfingen or the Champagnerstrasse to Esslingen/Mettingen.
