It starts flat and gets steeper towards the end, which requires a bit of technique with the bike.

The lake is enchanted and lies in the forest and was created by mining. Today it is a valuable biotope.

Beautiful trail that becomes increasingly narrow from Sandershausen to the smugglers' gorge. No problem at the beginning even with the touring bike, towards the end there were also narrow, rooty passages that I gave up on my gravel bike and pushed briefly. Definitely worth a detour through the scenery!

Ingenious corner with great rocky passages, but also small to large jumps. Beginners please pay attention! 🍀

As an MTB beginner, I find the trail very difficult and demanding. First steep downhill and then steep uphill again, rough and technical. If you feel like jumping and want a little thrill, this is the place for you! A very idyllic corner.
