I would like to go down there with my MTB (if I dare, because the surface is slippery and rocky). The picture doesn't show how steep it really is. Every now and then you can see 10 to 20 quads trying their hand at the escarpment. A few years ago there was a really wide strip that was free of bushes and trees. In the meantime, however, nature has already reclaimed a lot.

Here the inner-German border ran steeply up the mountain. Every now and then you can see quad bikers trying their hand at the steep terrain. I haven't seen any mountain bikers on this slope yet.
Believe me, the pictures don't convey how steep the slope really is.

Here at the former inner-German border with almost 1400 kilometers, you can still see some traces of the border installations and guess what that meant for the population.
