アーヘンのバイクパーク・トップ20

With a MTB fully you can really let it rip! The cross drainages can be used for jumps. In autumn you should always be careful because you can't see sharp stones!

Because it is beautiful here and there are many things to discover, especially for children!

One of the most beautiful but also most challenging trails in the area. Beautiful nature.

The site of today's Carl-Alexander Park in Baesweiler was part of the Carl-Alexander pit, a hard coal mine in Baesweiler and belonged to the Aachen hard coal district. Coal mining stopped in 1975 and the Carl Alexander Park was created here as part of the EuRegionale 2008. The most important design elements of the park are: a landscape artery connecting the park with Beeckfliess and Wurmtal, a mountain foyer with restaurants, the ascent to the heap with a suspension footbridge and suspension bridge, the mountain plateau with a viewing platform and a mountain park at the foot of the heap. The CAP also includes a technology and commercial area and a youth camp with play and sports facilities.

At the entrance to the Adlerschlucht, the king of the skies will personally greet you. In the valley behind it, a walk-in free-flight aviary stretches between meter-high rock faces, where you can observe African birds of prey such as hooded vultures and Egyptian vultures in the immediate vicinity. This experience is still a rarity in zoos worldwide. Past stone cliffs and a babbling waterfall, visitors enter the dense owl forest behind a curve. With a bit of luck you can see the otherwise nocturnal birds gliding silently along. In the 800 m² free-flight aviary, snowy owls and gray owls live together in a taiga landscape similar to that found in Scandinavia. In the imposing mountains next door, ibexes and takins go on daring climbing tours. They watch what is happening in the zoo from a lofty height, while the agile marmots at the foot of the mountain complete the mountain panorama.

The park at the Carl-Alexander-Halde is equipped with lots of play equipment and seating. With its clearings, groves, vantage points and rest areas, the park invites you to linger, walk, cycle and discover. From the red mountain foyer you can hike over a 25-meter-long suspension bridge, the Schwebesteg and the Himmelsstiege to the Halde or you can take the gravel path to the summit. The view from the top is magnificent!

Really nice, long trail!

Very fun descent. Requires some driving technique.
