Thingstätte Heidelberg (Heiligenberg Amphitheater)

Highlight • Historical Site

A memorial and a memorial site in one. It is very impressive how well preserved this complex is. 400 of these building complexes were once planned, and 60 were ultimately built in Germany, Poland and Russia.

September 2, 2023,MTB Odenwald Trail-Tour: Klosterrunde von Schriesheim [Canyon Spectral:ON]

Nice tour with a lot of trails, only the last loop around the Geisenbach is BBB (broken stems, blackberries and nettles) and can be "saved".

Classic round from Schriesheim. Rode here today because this round has little mud. Lots of uphill and downhill trails. Jagdhaus, Mausbach and Ziegelhausen trails are always beautiful. Stop at the monastery.

February 10, 2024,Trail-Tour: Klosterrunde von Schriesheim

My favorite tour. There was a lot of mud and fallen trees on the route today. We couldn't ride the monastery trail to the end. Stop at the inn in the monastery garden. Weather good, even if there was no sun.

July 9, 2022,Trail-Tour: Lieblingstrails zum Kloster

A short round with my favorite trails. Moderately high to the White Stone. Then into the trail adventure. The uphill trails are tough with an e-bike. But they can all be bypassed. My trail favorite is the trail to the monastery. Eat in the monastery.

One of my favorite rounds. Anyone who loves trails should ride this one. Easy to the White Stone. Then trails to the monastery. Later, uphill trails also have to be mastered. Start from Schriesheim, stop at the monastery and coffee house. Drove fast today, so less photos.

January 8, 2022,Trail-Tour mit Schnee: Lieblingstrails

Admittedly, when I rolled into Schriesheim with Matthias, I was glad that I had no wounds. When I told my wife about the tour, I had a big grin on my face. It's exciting when you ride blocked S1 trails with roots and stones that you can no longer see. Our concentration was required. After the snow came the mud. …
