| How to get there |
The eastern climb starts in Elmen (976m) (the real climbing starts in Steeg (1125m)) or higher up at Warth (1495m), if coming down from Hochtannbergpass (1676m). (One descends slightly to Lech (1444m).) I have not been cycling on the road east of Warth, but from the profile at Salite.ch it looks like it is a somewhat easy, but irregular climb. From the west the climb starts at the far western Austrian city of Bludenz (578m), which is the longest and hardest climb. If coming from Arlbergpass the climb starts at Rauz (1602m). |
