It is impressive to see what was done during the construction of the inclined plane railway line up to Marktschorgast at that time. This stone wall is huge when you stand in front of it

Inclined plane, the term comes from the times of steam locomotives, during this time a second steam locomotive was always tied to the train 🚂 🚂 in order to cope with the "inclined plane". The area extends approximately from; Neuenmarkt-Wirsberg to Marktschorgast- / Gefrees left and right of the railway line. Good moderate for biking; with a few exceptions, no steep climbs, rather continuous but also demanding due to the length, conversely there are fast descents.
Bicycle tours to Goldbergsee are popular in summer, and can be ridden on some routes with simple touring bikes.
But that shouldn't be deceptive, apart from that there are a few steep short ramps and demanding trails; he who seeks finds. 🚂 🚵🏻‍♂️🚵🏻‍♂️🚵🏻‍♂️💨
