Heidenberg Sandstone Quarry

Highlight • Structure

Worth seeing, large sandstone formations in the middle of the forest.
Around the big sandstone walls there are some MTB trail, up and downhills to work on his technique. (Fun guarantee) :)

Sandstone Cliff Edge Trail

A great technique training corner. But be careful. Here it goes deep down, in the old sandstone quarries.

Forest trail with rocky cliffs in Middle Franconia

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Actually, in this corner a single trail can not be singled out. Just go there and then turn right, sometimes left, just as you like. It's fun and also elicits a "mega" from the youth.

Root Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A trail peppered with many roots, uphill you get a good sweat, downhill you get really fast and the suspension gets to do well.

Check the weather app and pick a sunny region—Frankenland, that is.
Blue skies ☀️ and 10 degrees, so shorts and off we go.
The sandstone trails are amazing, and then we continue along the Aurach River.
There's a reason this route is one of my favorites.
Apart from the approach and departure from Schwabach, there's hardly any asphalt 👍
