Down Neuhäuser Straße we get a taste of what's to come.
We have fun walking down the local road with a gradient of 22.65%, probably the steepest local road in Germany, and then back up again.
If the postbox at the community center is about halfway there, the path could be slippery in winter. Back up at Oberweißbacher Straße we are confused by another sign pointing to what is probably the steepest road in Germany with a gradient of 25.3%.
We now have to climb up this road.translated by•May 17, 2023
