You mean Adenauer Forst, which is where most of the crashes happen. I remember getting a photo of Pete bumping his sump and splitter on the kerb there a few days before he planted it in the barrier. You are guaranteed to see a spin and someone go off onto the grass. Looking at the overhead photo, you can see why - it bends left, then bends left again, which is when newbies are already on the throttle to exit the corner. When they lift off, all the weigh goes over the front and they spin. Alternatively, they don't lift and go grass-tracking!

Anyway, this shows why it's so hard work walking up there. It's a 1.2km walk where you gain 130 metres in height.

Other options:

Breidscheid & Weirscheifen

Bergwerk

Brunnchen, Wipperman, Hohe Acht, Steilstreke and the Karussell

Kleine Karussell

Hatzenbach to T13

Brunnchen' date=' Wipperman, Hohe Acht, Steilstreke and the Karussell[/url']

is the answer as they are all on the same walk route and you never leave track side. And there is ice cream when you get back to the car park.
