I'd like to refer you to the MTB project group and picture 13: Route 1 (green) Ready for the hunt for personal bests. The circuit includes an exciting descent with challenges for everyone. A single-track uphill takes you back to the starting point for the next lap. Route 2 (blue) Our flowing single trail with easy elements, berms, and waves is perfect for beginners to push their limits and surpass themselves. Route 3 (red) Start small, get big. Our jump line offers lots of fun and airtime. It's peppered with variable takeoffs, tables, and berms. The highlight is the large table with a view of Erfurt city center. Route 4 (black) Ready when you are. Despite its compact length, our downhill line for advanced riders offers a steep and fast descent, drops of varying heights, and always an opportunity to pull away. Well done 🦊☺️

Small, pretty, but sometimes quite narrow trails and ramps, jumps (some of which can be avoided), not necessarily suitable for beginners. Some experience is definitely required. The trails (we've only been on the Flowride trail and the turnaround loop so far) are fun, though. 👍🏻😁

Very cool pump track that we probably wouldn't have found without a local there. However, the journey there is already tough.

Such a beautiful forest area which is destroyed by the MTB riders. Cross-country driving creates strong grooves in the ground. This loosens the underlying stones (rocks) and rolls down into the valley. For those walking below wander a danger. Furthermore, the trees lose their footing and in heavy rain the water can no longer seep away.

This approx. 360 m long forest path without any significant difference in altitude can be classified as an S1 difficulty level due to small roots. The path is easily passable in both directions. Since there are two hiking routes to the Riechheimer Berg, pedestrians are always to be expected.

No PumpTRACK, but pumping/pushing is quite possible on the middle section (especially in the direction of travel W->O). In my opinion one of the most beautiful descents back to Ilmenau. The middle piece could also be classified as S1 instead of S0. In the last stretch between Kindergarten and Roda, one should be aware of the three steps/heights at the end; the steps aren't necessarily the "worst" thing, but sometimes the low-hanging twigs/branches directly above.
