Mountain biking

The many rock groups of the Wüstenburg cannot actually be found without a good highlight position, as they are hidden in the forest. The adjacent forest path does not provide any information or a view of the rock formations. A detour is definitely worth it! A huge complex with fantastic rocks awaits us.

The many rock groups of the desert castle cannot be found without a good highlight position. Birgit did a good job here, as the adjacent forest path does not provide any clues or a view of the rock formations. A detour is definitely worth it!
