2nd part slate mountains. The landscape and route are much more exciting than in part 1. There were also some top-class highlights and two stately ramps on the Kolonenweg, which I could only climb up by pushing.

It was 1400 meters in elevation.
We also included the old border tower on the Hopfberg and had to push our bikes up there because, unfortunately, cycling is now prohibited there. But it was definitely worth it.
