The Weissenstein Bike Trail is a well-developed flow trail. It starts at Nesselboden and ends in Oberdorf. The trail has some slightly challenging parts, but is not really difficult to ride. Nevertheless, you should have some practice if you are riding it for the first time. There are quite steep sections and surprising curves. The opening is scheduled for 2024 after objections delayed completion for several years. By the way, there are some muddy and quite slippery areas when it is wet.

Super nice, long descent. But requires trail experience. Not for beginners. Can also be done with an e-bike.

As of the end of September 2024: The trail has now been fully developed into a showcase flow trail. Unfortunately, the previously somewhat more challenging sections have been converted into a rather monotonous tourist flow trail. Almost a bit too "motorway" for me. Although the start at the Nesselnboden intermediate station is still cool with some cool jumps. After that, however, it gets a bit monotonous: steep curve after steep curve on shaped, led Jura gravel. Hardly any stones or roots. I also miss the yellow Jura stone slopes typical of the Jura. But there are now some wet and therefore slippery sections on the flow trail. I liked the trail better before because it was more challenging and varied.
