Eifel (Nürburgring Road)
B258Schleiden to Nürburg
Serpentine Eifel B-road that threads right past the Nürburgring.
The B258 carves through the volcanic Eifel hills from Schleiden down past the Nürburgring at Nürburg toward Mayen, a route prized by drivers for its mix of fast sweepers and tighter serpentines. Near Antoniusbuche by Döttingen it passes under the Nordschleife and runs alongside the circuit’s Döttinger Höhe straight before climbing away through wooded valleys. It gets very busy at weekends with traffic heading for the Ring, seasonal motorcycle restrictions apply on some Eifel roads, and police presence is heavy.
