Tips from the Community
aha, I thought that looked like one, but there actually is one. That's the crowning end of the IXS descent. Anyone who rides down there has my respect

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.

Nice trail with one or the other root. In the direction of Ilmenau, be careful at the end because the path ends on a forest road, which is often taken as a shortcut.

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.

Historic ski jump that is now used as the finish line for the IXS Downhill Cup in Ilmenau. Mind you: The timing is only at the bottom of the hill, so that the drivers shoot over the jump at the top and then try to get down the ramp as quickly as possible. Just crazy to watch every time.

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.
