ウムハウゼンの峠・トップ20

A relatively straightforward ascent via the Hohe Egg and the west ridge with occasional easy scrambling (I). The ascent or descent via the east ridge is prone to rockfall due to loose scree ⚠️ and is technically more demanding (II).

There are three tunnels at the bottom. While they're relatively short and well-lit, I still recommend at least a rear light for peace of mind (the signposted bicycle detour for the lowest tunnel is definitely NOT recommended, as there are scree slopes that are quite dangerous even if you're pushing your bike). Overall, though, it's such a beautiful and varied road that you almost (almost!) forget how much your legs hurt. The traffic is really very relaxed, especially on weekdays.

Be careful when leaving, the road is in pretty bad condition

At each bend there is a sign with the current altitude and the numbering at the bottom, starting with the total number of bends and then counting backwards to 1️⃣ so you always know how many you still have to go

It's got it all: a long climb, plenty of hairpin bends, and a breathtaking view. That's if you're not pedaling.

Very nice pass, I agree with the previous speakers here. If anyone is looking for a special challenge, you can try the Kühtai Rodeo. Here is the official link: https://www.kuehtai.info/kuehtai-rodeo

Marmots can be seen along the trail from time to time! It's worth stopping and observing them in the beautiful landscape.

I would definitely recommend going up there. If you like altitude you will love this section.
