ドルトムントのバイクパーク・トップ20

Those who love altitude will enjoy the 278 steps to the Deusenberg slag heap. A sporting challenge with guaranteed rewards. At the top, an impressive panoramic view of Dortmund, all the way to Signal Iduna Park and the TV tower, awaits. The former landfill has been transformed into a green oasis with a mountain bike arena, walking trails, and a paragliding launch site.

The relatively moderate climb to the plateau of the Deusenberg spoil heap is worthwhile. A magnificent view is the reward.

The Bittermark is a historically and ecologically important forest area in the south of Dortmund. It stretches between the districts of Kirchhörde, Lücklemberg and Wichlinghofen and is particularly popular as a local recreation area where you can go for a walk, jog or cycle. The landscape is characterized by old beech and oak forests, crossed by natural streams such as the Olpkebach and the Bittermarksbach. The Bittermark has a dark history: During the Second World War, especially in the last weeks of the war in 1945, numerous forced laborers and resistance fighters were murdered here by the Gestapo. In memory of the approximately 300 victims, the Bittermark Memorial stands in the forest, which was inaugurated in 1960. It is a central memorial for the victims of National Socialism in Dortmund. In addition, the Bittermark has a mining past. In the adjacent forests, coal seams were mined close to the surface, and remains such as pits and old tunnels are still visible today. In some places, iron-rich mine water comes to the surface, indicating earlier coal mining. In addition to its historical significance, the area also offers a valuable natural landscape with a diverse flora and fauna. It is an important retreat for those seeking relaxation in Dortmund and at the same time a protected area for the local flora and fauna.

Mostly located in the lower part of the park, between the Olpkebach and Bittermarksbach. In the upper area near the AB 45 underpass there are also a few hidden trails.

Goes up and down nicely. :)

Anyone who drives the full course with all the ramps should have the appropriate driving skills and the necessary respect. Otherwise, it's better to skip it.

Search a bit and turn three times and you'll have fun..

This is where it all starts, a great selection of trails.
