Legal / Effective 9 August 2026
Information is not a green light.
Use this journal as general editorial context. It does not grant route access, certify equipment, assess a rider or replace current official information.
Editorial service only
Klenan Altitude publishes general English-language information about bicycle categories and cycling routes associated with Germany. It is not a bicycle manufacturer, retailer, repair shop, instructor, route operator, land manager, transport provider, insurer, travel agent or emergency service.
No booking or commercial relationship
The site does not sell products, accommodation, route access, registration, transport or tours. There are no affiliate links or payment functions. Mention of a bicycle category, route organisation or destination does not create a partnership, endorsement or customer relationship.
Route information changes
Distances, ascent, alignments, surfaces, seasonal arrangements and services can change. Weather, forestry, construction, conservation work and emergencies may close or divert a route without this site being updated. Check the linked official source close to departure and follow current signs, barriers, land-manager instructions and emergency directions. Those sources always take precedence.
Reader responsibility
You are responsible for choosing lawful routes, evaluating your skills and health, maintaining equipment, carrying appropriate food and water, arranging insurance and transport, and deciding whether conditions are safe. A published route or photograph is not proof that a path is currently open or suitable for you, your bicycle or an assisted cycle.
Bicycle information
Category articles explain general trade-offs. They are not individual fitting, purchase, repair or safety advice and do not represent laboratory or long-term tests of pictured bicycles. Check the current manufacturer manual, load ratings, service instructions and applicable law. Use a qualified professional where the work or decision exceeds your competence.
External links
Links are provided for source transparency and further planning. External sites control their own information, availability, privacy and terms. Klenan Altitude does not guarantee that a third-party link remains accurate, secure or unchanged.
Images and text
Unless stated otherwise, the original editorial text and site design are reserved by the project. Photographs retain the copyright and open licences named on the sources and credits page. Reuse of those photographs must comply with the linked licence, including attribution and share-alike obligations where applicable.
Availability and liability
The site is provided on an “as available” informational basis without a promise of uninterrupted access, completeness or fitness for a particular route or decision. Nothing here limits rights or liabilities that cannot lawfully be limited. To the extent permitted by applicable law, use of the information and any resulting ride or purchase decision remains the reader’s responsibility.
Changes
These terms may be revised when the project or published functionality changes. The effective date above identifies the current static build.
