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.

Walsdorfer Berg

Highlight • Summit

The climb looks inconspicuous, but for most cyclists from Idstein it is at the end of the tour. If you then have a headwind or sweltering heat, then you are happy when you are up on the Hohe Straße.

August 18, 2024,Rennrad-Tour - frei nach Wolfgang Ambross: der Berg ruft

Set off this morning in constant drizzle, very meditative journey there. The Garmin once again paved the way for me to the mountain...the altimeter showed some really strange things...maybe the cloud cover was too thick...?
At the summit...completely alone, a short break...and without meeting a single cyclist or motorcyclist today - back home.
