Mountain biking

A narrow-gauge railway once ran here, transporting wood from the forest. Today there are hiking trails and a mountain bike trail or, in winter, a cross-country skiing trail.

Mountain biking

The forest railway, built in 1919, was also shut down when the sawmill in Gutenbrunn was closed in 1933. Today, the former routes in the Weinsbergerwald are used for tourism: in summer as mountain bike routes and in winter as cross-country ski trails...
A beautiful stretch of road.
