From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tiger and Turtle – Magic Mountain is an art installation and landmark in Duisburg, Germany, built in 2011.[1][2] It was designed by Ulrich Genth and Heike Mutter. It resembles a roller coaster, but it is a walkway with stairs. Its vertical loop continues the walkway and stairs but is unwalkable and blocked off. In 2013, Tiger and Turtle – Magic Mountain was ranked as #6 on HuffPost's list of Most Extreme Staircases.[3]
