Easy but nice singletrack (S0-S1)

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Relaxed trail from the Hofewiese over larger and smaller paths down into the Prießnitztal, where you have to pass a short sandy area. At the end of the trail, a small shelter awaits “trailers” for a short break.

Today we have, roughly, ridden the Heide MTB marathon route from 2019.
When it started with drizzle we were just at the Hofewiese and ate out the bad weather with bratwurst, shandy, fried fish, coffee, cake and more coffee.
Then the flow trails quickly went back to the alum square.
An all-round successful Saturday

🥵 Pretty out of breath. Today I pulled an ancient "planning bullet" out of the bottom drawer. The route roughly corresponds to the MTB Heidemarathon. Alright. Hook behind it 😁 Could have been a few more trails.

@Sascha showed us this beautiful tour. komoot.com/de-de/tour/1971582792
And today I needed something to blast through the heath with. This route was perfect.

After a lovely choir weekend in Plauen, my mind was exhausted, but my body wasn't.
Actually, the last time I rode my mountain bike was for the Stoneman 🏅 about a month ago. Lately, I've always been carrying …

Another MTB ride in the Dresden Heath today. It's a great place to go. I rode four interesting and well-known runs in the heath. The third is the longest and has a lot to offer. If you ride there on your downhill bike or freerider, there are also plenty of jumps. So, it's a very good route for mountain biking.

Did a really cool mountain bike ride today. I went up four times and down four times. The Dresdner Heide has enough of them and is of course highly recommended. First I went uphill along the Prießnitzgrundweg to the Silbersee. At the Silbersee I took a break. Not too far I went to the first descent. This descent is called …

Someone destroyed the road gap and scattered an enormous amount of broken glass from there to Sandgrube and probably beyond. Attention ⚠️ Attention ⚠️

Today I copied a whole stretch of the route from the MTB marathon we took part in in 2019 and invited my colleagues and friends to do it.
Right at the beginning we were instructed by a lady with a dog that we shouldn't drive the paths so far apart, so that the heath would be preserved for a long …
