1.8 km long ascent with an increase of more than 8% on average. Still directly in Elkeringhausen an announcement! Up to the town sign the mountain braces itself brutally against the front wheel. It is now about 500 meters with a 10% cut up the mountain. Maximum slopes of 15% are achieved. Then it flattens off a bit, before waiting in the forest another ramp with some 18%.

Enjoy your time ;-)

Coming from Winterberg, a dream of a descent. Then briefly through beautiful Elkeringhausen. Then you turn left and there is a small, short wall. But then there is a long climb that drags on a bit. But you can do it and things continue to be relaxed at the top. When going uphill you can look at the beautiful landscape. Conclusion: The jellyfish are worth it for the panorama.

Great climb with some sporty ramps. Great surface and great nature. “In the Orketal” there is slightly less traffic than on the L740.
