Pretty wide trail and easy to ride.

From the tower you have a great view of the Meidelstetter valley.
Directly below the tower there are so-called Abri's.
These might have sheltered hunters in the Stone Age.
This is not confirmed to my knowledge.

ALB GOLD 2014.
After so many years, I thought about going to Trochtelfingen to drive and there to awaken old memories like the ALB GOLD race from 2014.
The route consists of beautiful forest roads, dirt roads and gravel roads.
There are hardly any real trails to ride and the 3-4 trails where there are are pretty wide and easy. …
