On the Challenge Roth course – easy waves. Across the road, the view of the MC-D – it's simply great, and someone gives you a smile.

Start off easy, don't stay in the big gear for too long. RPM is the key to success, then it's easy - on-the-go to the summit.

A beautiful vantage point with a bench and table. In winter, it's perfect for a mulled wine break. The view of Beilngries, the Arzberg, and the Altmühl Valley is worth the climb.
