It depends, sometimes a nice descent or a long climb, but the journey is rewarded with a great view

On asphalt paths and parts of the "Alten Wolfhager Straße" you go through the middle of the forest towards the B251. Concentrated driving is the order of the day, as the surface of the road is already quite worn, but is still sufficiently passable.

On this section there are unpaved sections here and there and a very rough asphalt surface, it is definitely better to take this section as a driveway and then drive back to Kassel or further out via Ehlener Straße. With a gradient of 10-12% in places, the rough surface doesn't matter anymore ;-)
