    Bayern curve here you can see how bobsleigh was used in the past. There is a footpath along the former Olympic bobsleigh run with lots of signs

      A walk from start to finish is worthwhile. At the start you can see the remains of the upper station of the bobsleigh elevator and the foundation of the start housing. It's only when you walk that you realize how fast and dangerous the route was. At the Bayern curve there is a small cross for four bobsledders who died in accidents. The target area a little overgrown, easy to miss. The lower bobsleigh track station is well preserved.
