This is where the Hochwexl "The WU" Trail starts. It leads over 2.7 km in length and 265 meters down to the Marienseer Schwaig. The route is part of the "Wexl Trails" and therefore you need a ticket for it, which you can buy e.g. in the Wetterkoglerhaus.
The route is actually classified as "blue, easy", it runs smoothly and you can "step on the gas". However, with the many large stones lying on the route, you have to be very careful about your choice of line. Since there are also a few (few) trickier passages, I find the trail a bit demanding overall. I would therefore not necessarily recommend it for beginners. Because you should bring a little technical experience and the right bike with you.
Otherwise a hammer cool trail that is really fun! Definitely try it out if you're in the area!

Advanced technology needed. In the upper part, sometimes very rough, because of rocky ground.
