EN: One of the locals favourite Flowy fast Singletrail with lots of roots. The second part of the Trail is more difficult, but no problem for an avid Mountainbiker.

Please take care! This is a hikingtrail. Give way to hikers!

DE: Einer der Favoriten der Einheimischen! Flowiger, schneller Singletrail mit vielen Wurzeln. Der zweite Teil des Trails ist schwieriger, aber für gute Mountainbiker kein Problem.

Bitte aufpassen! Dies ist ein Wanderweg, Wanderer haben Vortritt!
