Welcome to the cutting-edge of uphill cycling
and world's most famous ascents of each of the continents
If you arrive from the north and can not await a real proper passroad you must not miss this one: Austrian Hahntennjoch connects Inn valley and Lech valley and can be challenged on a broad asphalted Federal road. Hanhtennjoch overcomes more than 1,000 meters of altitude difference with a considerable gradient.
Departure: Imst 814m
Eastern approach from Imst reports an average grade of some 9% and even more on the final climb.
Depart in Imst
The road winds up...
...cleanly asphalted.
Usually, the road is very popular among motor cyclists. However, Monday morning the way is almost deserted :-)
The route leads up in a wide turn.
