Coming in the direction of travel from Hersbruck, a steep hairpin ends shortly before entering Steinensittenbach into the crisp, but calm, ascent. Small road but very good tar surface for racing bikes. Short passage through the village before you head straight back to the exit towards Pegnitztal on the opposite side.

- really nice to drive, definitely highlight worthy!
- I probably would never have thought of turning off here at Steinensittenbach
- very lonely, narrow road in the middle of nature, in between it really goes up quite a bit
