      Had a ride today. Still don’t really like it.

      For others! Bone dry conditions. 10. April 2025

      Haven’t seen it that dry since I moved here a year ago.

      Got even a little bit more extreme cause of all the rain, but still a lots of fun (west facing, so you can go in the late afternoon with no hikers on the trail). I think the difficulty is totally comparable to the Ross und Buchstein trail , which is a pro line

      It has become much more extreme than previous years. Some work has been done on the trail, but more against further erosion. Has lost some of its charm as worn-out as it is now. You can now compare the technical passages with Roßstein Buchstein. Maybe time to change it to red trail marking. This trail could have some trail maintenance, but for bikers. So there will be less erosion in the future...

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
