This climb begins in Vor Reichenbächle along the street connecting Schiltach with Schramberg (the 462). If you come from Schiltach, turn right in Vor Reichenbächle. During the first two kilometers, the climb is still pleasant (5-8%). Then, after a fork in the road where you keep to the right, the road gets steeper and the steepest kilometer the ride (11.3%) begins. Where the road bends back a little in the direction of the start point of the ascent, one may relax a little in a less steep section (5%). This ends in a hairpin bend to the left and is quickly followed by another challenging section with a 250 meter strip of 15%. The destination is not at the Höhengasthaus Heuwies but a few hundred meters further at a culmination point of the road.
