Gusbach, that's what the real people of Niederjosbach and Oberjosbach still call their place today. But there isn't a beach anywhere here. Things were different around 25 million years ago. In the Tertiary there was actually a coastline here! This is proven by so-called rubble stones that were found

Always follow the squirrel: The eleven-kilometer-long Eichhornweg - in this version with a return trip to and from the campsite it is a good 18 - takes you over gravel paths and on forest roads through the dense forest around the 513 meter high Nickel. The circular route starts at the old town hall in

From the campsite you first go to Eppstein train station, where the approximately ten kilometer long circular route begins. From here you simply follow the path markings with the image of the little knight Gottfried, the festival symbol of the 650th anniversary in 1968. On this tour you can expect steep

Green hills, a stately castle and wonderful views – pure Taunus awaits you on the Richard-Hofmann-Weg. The route takes you around all five districts of Eppstein. The path is named after Richard Hofmann, who was mayor of Eppstein for three decades and supported the establishment of the circular path

This route is based on the former CTF "LIMESweltkulTOUR" from MTV Kronberg from 2012. The event no longer exists, but on this tour you can follow in its footsteps. It has been adapted so that it starts and ends at the campsite.



The MTV Kronberg now holds the Taunus Mountain Bike Marathon every year. You

This is the route of the popular CTF "Vordertaunus-CTF", which is organized annually by RV Opel Rüsselsheim. It has been adapted so that it starts directly at the campsite so that you can follow in the footsteps of this event. The route is not very technically demanding and is therefore also suitable

This is the route of the popular CTF "Staufenbike", which RC Hattersheim organizes every year. It has been adapted so that it starts and ends at our campsite so that you can follow the trail of this event directly from here.

This round is not for beginners - there are steep climbs and blocked descents around Eppstein. Some of the trails are technically challenging. So you should really master your mountain bike and, if in doubt, be prepared to push it a bit. You can enjoy some of the most beautiful trails in the surrounding

One of the few options for a relatively flat and fast lap is if you follow this tour towards Frankfurt. If it's a bit too long for you, you can easily shorten it by about half at Kelsterbach on the Main Bridge. Either way, you should save some energy for the way back, because you can't avoid the last

This round is ideal for you if you want to experience the undulating Taunus landscape without having to struggle up long, steep climbs. It's not flat here, but the worst climbs are avoided on this tour. At the very beginning there is a short steep section in Niederjosbach. Once you've left that behind

Short but sweet - this applies to both the tour and its highlight, the Mammolshainer Stich. It's actually a relatively unspectacular residential street, but the short gradient of up to 23% is legendary among cyclists. The ramp is used several times during the annual professional cycling race. Can you

The Rheingau is primarily known for winegrowing. But it also has a lot to offer for racing cyclists. This tour is a good 100 kilometers long, but from Schierstein am Rhein you can actually shorten it easily anywhere. From here you drive westwards along the banks of the Rhine for a long time, while the

The extensive tour into the Wispertal is demanding but worthwhile. It takes you to one of the most remote regions of the Taunus. Before you reach the valley that gives it its name, there are still a few hills in your way. So you gain a few meters of altitude on the way there.

The Großer Feldberg is the highest mountain in the Taunus and a popular excursion destination. On this round you climb it from Schmitten. This is a much more pleasant option compared to the Frankfurt side, as the traffic is limited. The actual climb begins in Schmitten, which is around nine kilometers
