Interesting from the beginning of May, when the trail is so overgrown that you can no longer see parts of it. This also serves to "harden" you: when you ride on it in shorts, the thorns often open up wounds.

The climb up here is quite challenging and once you reach the top you have a fantastic panoramic view of the Nuremberg region.
