Nice long climb. Motorsport mountain championships used to take place here. Great views over Happurg and the surrounding area.

Connecting piece Deckersberg - Happurger Reservoir. The best way to enjoy is from Deckersberg in the south to the upper reservoir and then the long descent to the lake.

I always find the Deckersberg with the racing bike to be a classic. I prefer to ride uphill from Kruppach and do a lap over the upper reservoir.

The dried-up upper reservoir of the Happurg pumped storage power plant is located on the mountain. This was used to generate electricity before it was discovered in 2011 that the water drained through a cave system beneath the pool.

Great route, hardly any traffic on weekdays and the ascent and descent are just awesome.

A nice, long, but somewhat flatter climb. Baaaah, you sheep!
