    The summit has been car-free since 2001. However, it can still be easily reached with the Belchenbahn, or of course on foot or by bike.

        Super cool ascent or descent to the summit

          A former road up to the Belchen summit. But now, for cars, closed. That means you can ride long wavy lines with the bike without bothering anyone ;-).

            After an ascent over good and sometimes steep routes, away from roads, you will be rewarded with a unique view over the Rhine Valley, over the Black Forest and, in good weather conditions, with a great view of the Alps.

                the Belchen is simply the most beautiful mountain in the Black Forest - and the traffic-free road (since 2001) is still in good condition (racing cyclists only have to carry or push at the cable car valley station)

                    The climb is definitely worth it.. wonderful panoramic view as the summit is a tree-free zone

                      A quiet panoramic road to Belchen – completely car-free, ideal for cyclists and hikers. A pleasant climb with fantastic views along the way.
