    Always worth a climb. Great all-round view of the countryside. The asphalt ends at the car park for hikers. From there it continues over gentle gravel for about 400 meters. At the end there is an approx. 300 meter long ascent over cobblestones. I started it up with 25 mm Conti tires at seven bar (of course without getting off :-D). It's going to drive.

      Hohenneuffen is always worth a visit – no question about it. Now, about the journey there: The gravel at the parking lot is a bit rough, but the cobblestones, especially combined with the approximately 18-20% gradient, are quite something.

      The climb is a fun, short challenge, but the descent is a bit tricky. I'm actually used to cobblestones – even with similarly steep inclines – but here, even in dry conditions, I had the feeling that the front wheel was going to slip out or get stuck in the gaps at any second – and that was with 38mm slicks at 2 bar!

      Let's just say: The (unofficial) signs repeatedly asking you to dismount are definitely there for a reason. Of course, these rules only apply to casual cyclists and not to world-class athletes who have their bikes under control, which is why dismounting is obviously out of the question 😉 Just make sure you don't crash 🤫

      On sunny weekends, especially in summer and autumn, you can expect a lot of recreational traffic here (particularly families with strollers and small children) – so be careful! Occasionally, cars belonging to residents near the castle also drive there.

        Tight but not too long climb in the last third - but definitely worth it 👍
