If you cycle in the Baumberge region, you should definitely take in Nottuln's Westerberg. If only because it is one of the toughest slopes in the region. You turn off, into a small forest road. Immediately your breath is taken away by gradients in the double digits. For a moment it seems to get a little less steep and there is room to relieve the legs a bit after which, before exiting the forest, there is another steep kink of some'12％.

THE classic steep climb to Longinus. Very steep in the forest and then very flat. Only when it's wet in autumn do you sometimes have to be careful here because of the leaves.

DER klassische steile Anstieg zum Longinus. Im Wald sehr steil und danach sehr flach. Nur bei Nässe im Herbst muss man hier manchmal wegen Blätter aufpassen.

If you arrive from the west side with speed then you can grab some gains on the 1st steep section. After the 1st stretch above 10％ you can catch your breath on a 7％ stretch. This is followed by an even steeper stretch up to 14％ (=harken to the top). Then another long spur to the tower. Climb is spicy, but worth it!

Als je vanaf de westkant met snelheid aankomt dan kan je het 1e steile deel al wat winst pakken. Na het 1e stuk boven 10％ kan je even op adem komen op een stukje a 7％. Daarna volgt een nog steiler stuk tot 14％ (=harken tot de top). Vervolgens nog lange uitloper tot de toren. Klim is pittig, maar de moeite waard!

The steepest ascent to the Longinus Tower is always worth riding. If you come from the east, you start the climb almost from a standing start through the sharp bend. Inadvertently the first climb I have ever ridden on a road bike.

Der steilste Anstieg zum Longinus-Turm ist es immer wieder Wert, gefahren zu werden. Der Straßenbelag ist gut, aber durch die Lage im Wald oft etwas dreckig. Wenn man von Osten kommt startet man durch die scharfe Kurve fast aus dem Stand in den Anstieg. Aus Versehen der erste Anstieg, den ich je mit dem Rennrad gefahren bin.

Als je in de Baumberge fietst dan moet je de Westerberg van Nottuln zeker meepakken. Alleen al omdat het één van de zwaarste hellingen in de regio is. Je slaat af, een kleine bosweg in. Meteen wordt de adem je afgesneden door stijgingspercentages in de dubbele cijfers. Even lijkt het iets minder steil te worden en is er ruimte om de benen wat te ontlasten waarna er voor het uitrijden van het bos nog een steile knik van zo'n 12％ komt. Bij het uitrijden van het bos is het voorbij. De weg loopt dan nog ligt op tot de Longinusturm waar de echt top ligt en wat met 187 meter ook de hoogste heuvel van dit gebied is.
