About Großer Arber
The Großer Arber (1456 m) is the highest mountain of the Bavarian Forest. From Bodenmais the road climbs to the highest point below the summit; the last bit is on foot or by cable car.
In rampida you ride the route exactly as it lies on the road: the gradient reaches your trainer metre by metre, the scenery is built from real elevation data and OpenStreetMap. A pacer group can pull you along, and next time you race your own ghost.
