The eight-minute song by Led Zeppelin is probably the best rock ballad of all time - but here is the ladder of heaven, which leads from Dansweiler on the Glessener height. 224 steps made of thick wooden planks that lead steeply uphill and have already made world champion:

Define: Highlight (?) There is more going on here at the weekend than on Schildergasse for a sale.
The stairs, which incidentally consist of two parts and lead to the Glessener Höhe, are, in my opinion, very dangerous, especially when the timbers that make up the stairs are still wet.

Here you can then walk up the stairs to the Glessener height.
The only stupid thing is that you then no longer have your bike in sight.
