Hiking

The road in Meerane is only 248 meters long. But it's tough! A 12% gradient must be overcome to reach the summit. The fact that it goes over cobblestones is an additional challenge. In 1960, the mountain road was finally renamed "An der Steile Wand" (An der Steile Wand) for the 13th International Peace Race. It has long been the landmark of Meerane and a cult for cyclists!
