The route to Hatzenbach.  A great corner to see the cars coming from high speed.

First corner is easily accessible by foot and is called the Nordkehre.

If you walk further down, you will reach Hatzenbach. 

 

Good parking possibilities by Restaurant Paddock.

The route down to Hocheichen, from here you can walk back up to Hatzenbach.

 

Moderate walk, slightly uphill depending on how far you want to go back. I like to walk towards Hatzenbach for the best photo's. 

 

Good parking, on the side of the road.

The route down to Schwedenkreuz and Aremberg. One of the fastest corners of the Nordschleife.

 

Also one of the most dangerous corners as you can see on Youtube. This is a 20-25 min moderate walk (no climbs). Good parking facilities.

The most famous YouTube Corner is Adenauer Forst. A tricky corner where many get off the track.

 

Good parking facilities, but be warned a steep climb towards to corner.  Hard Steep walk up to the corner.

The route down to Flugplatz. I have given you two parking options as Parking #2 (Turn left before the Old White Hotel) requires a rough tarmac road.

Moderate walking distance.

Nice view point of cars getting airborne, if done properly, this makes for great pictures.

Great parking facilities at the supermarket.

 

Pretty easy to walk to. Yes Wehrseifen is a bit further, but only a 5-10 minute walk. You can walk even further up the hill to more corners.

Corner close to Adenaur Forst, so this means a hard walk for a minimal of 25 Min. 

 

Cars drive at high speed, big compression, not ideal for photos, but very fast driving and good for YouTube.

The route to T13. The finish line for the record laps.

 

Easy accessible by car and foot. Under 2 min walk to the corner.

 

Parking facilities are good, you can use the normal parking facilities of the Nurburgring or be a bit more cheaky and drive up to the gate.

Easy to reach, parking spaces not the best.

 

Corner is not great for photography because there is hardly any sunlight.

 

This means this corner is very tricky as it remains wet for a very long time.

Easy to park at the famous Brunchen parking place.

 

After that you have to take a 20 Minute walk towards the other corners.

The best corner on the Nordschleife? Certainly one of the most photographed. It is easy to park at the famous Brunchen parking.

 

40 Minute hard walk. Well worth it under dry conditions. It is the most iconic corner of the Nordschleife and fun to see.  Make sure the Norschleife is open and there is no bad weather incoming.

Esbach and Wipperman, use the same easy to park, parking place at Brunnchen.

 

After you park it is a 10 Minute walk towards these corners. If you walk further (30 Min) you will reach the Karussel. 

 

Not one of my favorite corners, but okay.

Pflanzgarten 1 is an easy location to park and to view. 

 

The fast cars will also get some lift at the jump.

Great for photographing, but only on the inside of the Track (only for press).

Pflanzgarten 2 is easy to walk to and will give you some very High speed flyby's.

 

Parking is a bit further away then Pflanzgarten 1. For photograpy it is not the best. 

It would walk a bit further to the Little Karussel.

Great corner to view, photograph or video.

 

Moderate walk 20-30 minutes depending on parking possibilities.

 

You can also park just beyond the bridge close the famous Gas Station and walk along the Nordschleife back. Both are moderate to hard walks of about 20-30 minutes.
