    about 56 meters increase, 6-12%, surface solid gravel partly washed out slightly with annoying rain gutters, curves uphill sufficiently dimensioned. Profiled tires are recommended with 25er Slicks slips the rear wheel at a meager 250-300 watts even when sitting partially through.

      A broad, but sometimes very steep path takes you up a spiraling route to the summit. There you will find a lookout tower, thanks to which you have a clear view to the Oberhausen gasometer.

        The Knappenhalde is a conical tailings pile in Oberhausen. At 102 m above sea level. NHN and 55 meters above the surrounding ground level, it is the highest elevation in the city.

        There is an approximately 15 meter high observation tower on the heap. Unfortunately, the trees are slowly becoming less visible in some directions. Despite everything, it's worth a visit!
