    Crispy Spitzkehrentrail, nice to drive🙂 the entrance is a bit hidden.

      Not only switchbacks but also roots and paragraphs are here. Even a small kicker over a tree trunk was built in. Very nice.

        This trail is part of the MTB13 round of the mountain bike park

          The card is deceptive. Although the distances between the hairpin bends are greater down below, the bends are pre-blocked. Difficulty S2 to S3.

            Very nice challenge! Unfortunately, some hairpin bends were pretty slow. It is better to start off slowly and practice moving the rear wheel. Perfect trail for it 👍🏻

              The switchbacks are easy to drive and therefore a big compliment to the track keeper. But of course this requires technical skill.

                Nice hairpin descent, not too difficult.

                  The lower part is definitely the harder one.

                    Plenty of hairpin bends / tight curves, pleasant descent not too steep - you can get through without having to move your rear wheel

                      Really great switchback trail that is a lot of fun for both experienced riders, who are offered somewhat crisper bends in the lower area, and less advanced riders, who also find simple bends to practice and get around higher up. Very beautiful!
