No more money: Bad Wildbad is on the brink of collapse

Bad Wildbad

The northern Black Forest is rumbling: the company operating the Bad Wildbad bike park is closing its doors at the end of the year due to financial problems. The park could not be operated profitably. Its future is currently uncertain.

The Adventure-Bikepark GmbH will cease operations at the end of 2025 due to a lack of profitability. The Adventure Bikes Shop also operates under this umbrella, and it has fallen into a tailspin due to the turbulence in the bike industry. Following the strong sales figures during Covid, the industry is suffering from overfilled warehouses and a devastating price collapse. Stores like the Adventure Bikes Shop are now feeling the effects of the pandemic several years later.

The crux of the matter in this case: the company behind the bike store is also responsible for the operation and maintenance of the bike park in Bad Wildbad. The future is now uncertain. The regional authorities now want to hold talks and examine whether the park could be continued in a different form. Models based on association structures or community participation are also possible. However, it is clear that a purely commercial operator would hardly be able to cover the costs alone.
