Pro všechny chrty a prestižáky je na Stravě vypsán závod do vrchu na zříceninu hradu Zubštejn. Sjezd lze zakončit až v autokempu. Atraktivní jsou lesní pasáže v první a třetí třetině trasy. Prostřední část přes louky je klidnější "kochací".

For all "greyhounds" and "prestigious" we have a challenge in the form of a virtual "race" from the camp site to the ruins of Zubštejn Castle. For downhill direction follow the blue sign. You can use the shuttle from the camp site or Vír.

This trail is unsanctioned.

whole track after location "Pivonice" is quite overgrown... sometimes super hard to find the right way and you have to fight against blackberries,...

      this is probably one of the most shitty trails/tracks i have ever found on trailforks (although i have ridden nearly 3.000 trailforks-tracks...).

      After riding a short, straight, fast and badly marked wide "single"-trail (with a few different variantes, as there are lots of lines because of hikers) from Zubštejn to Pivonice, you mostly have to ride on overgrown fireroads and traktor-roads with lots of unmarked crossings. As the last section of this current gps-track is definitely not rideable (even not able to hike because of overgrown vegetation) i followed the blue "hiking track" (as it says in the track's description), which is also a trakor road, and which is also not rideable and nearly not able to hike because of millions of blackberries and no maintenance and (trakor-)trail-care at all.

      The blue hiking track later ends at a meadow in the valley, where you have to follow the meadows and the Bystrice-river to the autocamp. There is not any sign at all, and nearly no path – quite crappy to ride, as you have to ride trough the meadows / fields and got stucked at hidden tractor tracks in the meadows.

      I also met a group of hikers – they were super pissed, as they got lost 4 times (!) on their way from Zubštejn to autocamp ...
      ... and at that time as i met them, they did not know, that later they will have to cross two times the Bystrice-river by foot (no bridge or rocks in the water! – one crossing was at least rideable with bike now in summer at low-tide-water)).

      Difficulty "red" is quite overrated, especially when there is no vegetation between autumn and spring.
