Is actually only worth it if you are there anyway. The best thing is the view from the opposite slope.

This climb is quite steep for a gravel bike.

If you are cycling along the Thur river on gravel, you will have to drive under this bridge.

Good spot for taking a break or escaping a sudden storm! There's some places to sit, as well as an overhanging roof where you can hide from the rain :)
