Ascent from Rotes Kreuz to the Feldberg

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

First curve behind the Red Cross on the way to Feldberg. When there are not many motorcyclists, it is wonderfully quiet and the fresh air is fantastic.

Ascent to Kleiner Feldberg

Highlight • Climb

A beautiful, winding, but not exactly rhythmic climb from the Red Cross to the Feldberg. Traffic is light during the week. The gradient averages about 6%, with short sections reaching 13%.

Whether up or down, this section is simply enjoyable.

Final spurt!!! From here you're almost there. Shortly after the sign you can either turn right and plunge into the descent, or you can turn left and climb the last steep meters up to the Feldberg Plateau.
