After turning off the B 236, you first ride briefly flat through the pretty half-timbered village of Fleckenberg. The climb begins suddenly and sharply with a left-hand bend. If you are not properly warmed up here, you will quickly feel the lactate in your legs.
At the end of the village, the gradient becomes a little more moderate, but remains steep. You quickly gain height and a wide view of the surrounding mountains opens up on the left-hand side. Back in the forest, several hairpin bends follow and you slowly approach the village of "Jagdhaus" and thus the highest point.
In Jagdhaus there are good opportunities to replenish your energy reserves. This is followed by an equally fantastic descent to the Siegerland side of the Rothaargebirge and into the Eder valley. Here you can decide: either down the Eder towards Bad Berleburg or up the Eder to the next pass, the Rhein-Weser-Turm.
