Hiking

The Hohe Acht is NOT, as one might assume, the highest point on the Nordschleife, but only the second highest.

The highest point is after the Hohenrain chicane in the old T13 area.

Hiking

After struggling up the steep climb, it's worth stopping there to catch your breath. A beautiful place.
