About Kesselberg
The Kesselberg road links Lake Kochel and Lake Walchen. Its hairpins hosted the Kesselberg race from 1905, one of Germany’s oldest hill climbs.
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.
