Prießnitz Downhill Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Easy trail down to Prießnitz. If you drive fast, you can take off a bit in some places. But pay attention to oncoming traffic! The trail is used intensively, especially in summer.

Sandgrube Trail

Highlight • MTB Park

Incredibly beautiful section. Whoever built the jumps / drops did all the work. Unfortunately, "only" has an XC bike, but with a fully this should be one of the trails in the heath.

After a hearty breakfast in Café Glocke (highly recommended) and a digestive walk through Dresden's Neustadt, we took a few trails in the heath. It was quite busy there, but luckily it was all peaceful. And the weather was just wonderful.

Today we dressed like Michelin men to match our bikes 🐛 and set off a short but intense trail fireworks display in the heath. Now we're lying shot 🔫 on the couch 🛋️.
