U-Shaped Descent and Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Fast drop and a short but fairly sharp climb out from either direction. North side is slightly steeper but south side continues further.

Tip by

45.1 km

Grand and impressive almshouses that according to the sign were erected in 1811 “for the aged and deserving poor”. If it wasn’t for the sign you’d think it was a country mansion. They don’t make social housing like this anymore!
