발켄부르크 안 데 겔‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 자전거 공원

The Wilhelminaberg staircase leads you upward in a long line, with 508 steps that make the height tangible. Each step takes you further away from the valley and closer to the open landscape at the top of the mountain. During the climb, you'll feel the effort, but you'll be rewarded time and again with moments of rest and views that slowly unfold. An iconic route where movement, silence, and panorama converge.

The bridge provides access to the steps of Wilhelminaberg and marks the beginning of the climb. From here, the path changes: away from the flat, towards the higher elevations, with increasingly better views as you follow the steps to the top.

Nice challenge, climbing the 508 steps of the staircase. It looks impressive from below!

Tough climb with loose stones, make sure to turn around when you reach the top, the view is beautiful.

This is better to climb than to descend, because it is very technical. The best thing to do with the MTB, although I also came up with a cross country bike with 33 mm tires. I wouldn't be able to go down with the cyclocrosser, I think. Very rocky and uneven, with stones ranging from small to coarse.

Going down stairs is mega!!

This is quite a tough climb (maximum part 25% according to my Garmin) on fairly loose gravel. On the other hand, a year ago it was still the Prorail diversion for cyclists when the level crossings were closed for work, so according to them it should be doable for everyone and their granny bike. Personally, I think it's on the edge for a gravel bike, rather MTB terrain.
