Roggenweid bench

Highlight • Viewpoint

After the detour to the observation ridge of the rye or after the first rapid, demanding passage of the descent on the trail, you come to the rye pasture. Under a beautiful beech is a Bänkli, which invites you to rest or just to the view into the Mittelland. In summer there are more than two dozen horses in the pasture, which are interested to see the biker, if you approach them carefully and do not thunder wildly to the valley.

Bechburg Trail

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

If you drive a short distance down the dirt road from the Roggen mountain restaurant, the trail branches off to the right about 400m further down, very inconspicuously. It is very flowy and fun to drive. But beware, the shark-like Jura rocks that protrude from the ground have it all. After about 200m of trail, there is an intermediate section on an overgrown path. 500m further down, the trail branches off sharply to the right again. It then includes some rooty, rugged places and some nice serpentines to drive and takes you down to Neu Bechburg.

Neu-Bechburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle was built in the second half of the 13th century and changed hands several times over the course of history. The Bechburg even served for a time as a poorhouse and later as a tavern. Today, the complex with its beautiful garden and the surrounding forest is owned by the foundation "Schloss Neu-Bechburg".

Thanks to many donations, the foundation was able to renovate the castle in recent years. According to a legend, a castle spirit named Kuoni haunts the rooms. It is said to be the spirit of a knight who was immured in the East Tower while alive.

Neu-Bechburg is not open to the public, but can be visited on request during a guided tour. There are also regular public events (neu-bechburg.ch/).

Short training lap over the Roggen before the rain forecast.
An e-biker overtook me on the way up. At the top he spoke to me: "I know you," he said. "He knows me from komoot," he clarified. Robert Aebi, it's nice that you spoke to me! Komoot connects. ✌️😀

Green below, white above. I almost didn't want to wait to make the first tracks in the snow with the Maxxis! I love the crackling of tires in the frozen snow. But then I didn't expect as much snow as there was on the rye upstairs. Starting up was correspondingly exhausting. With every meter of altitude, the traction decreased a …

I'd actually already written off the rainy weekend from a biking perspective. But a clearing up quickly changed my mind. A quick check on my 💛Genius, and I was on my way to the Jura Mountains in cool, windy conditions. Last week's storm had left its mark on the forest. Branches and a thick carpet of leaves covered the paths. …

When I've been working in the office all day in such nice weather, my bike gets really impatient and calls: get me out! You don't have to ask me twice!
As an evening tour, the Roggenflue is one of my local mountains. And with a new tire everything is a little easier again. In the absence of unavailable alternatives, I …

I couldn't resist the lure of the 🌞, left work a little earlier and happily switched from the office chair to the bike saddle and took one of my home rounds under my studs. A wise decision! 🌞😎👌

The Roggenflue, one of my local mountains, is worth a ride at any time of the year. If there is not too much snow, driving is possible even in winter. However, today I was alone. The tracks made by my Maxxis tires in the snow were the only signs, along with the rabbit tracks, that pointed to winter creatures. The …

Evening round trip over the Roggenflue. I call it a power round because I always tried to go one gear higher than I would normally. That takes energy, but I still felt good because the round only took a little over 2 hours.
I rode a short section of trail for the first time today. The start of this fun …

It took a bit of effort to get on the bike tonight. Heavy legs and a cold bite are not exactly ideal conditions for a ride. Once you're on the bike, everything is only half as bad. At the top of the Kretentrail, the wind was really snappy and didn't invite you to linger. Nobody disputed the benches at the …
