Steep but manageable ascent that is rewarded with a decent descent.

Due to the narrowing at the top of the "summit" and the resulting poor visibility for drivers, it's not a very nice passage. Alternatively, there is the cycle path, which you would actually like to avoid because it is difficult to get back onto the road during the descent. The gradient is doable from both sides, it is easier coming from Othfresen.
