May 10, 2025,Thannenkirch-Ribeauvillé – Château du Girsberg

Wonderful ride in glorious weather in Alsace🤗☀️
Primarily S1 Plus flow trails with a high proportion of carpeted trails 👍
Ribeauvillé is a tourist attraction with a correspondingly large number of people, but it's still very worth seeing and pleasant.
We stayed at Le Clos du Sources and were very impressed with the service, food, and creative renovation.

In summary, a route worth highlighting but we must keep …

Very interesting route with an ascent along a track that can be done quite well but be careful because most of the descent is on a very technical trail only suitable for expert cyclists.
