The mountain railway route for more advanced mountain bikers. With the help of three mountain railways, you discover a diverse trail offer that includes some tricky sections. Especially the trail from Obere Stutz to Oberbort and the final Simmegrund trail require good line choice.

The trails on the Rinderberg and Wispile are often also used by hikers, especially in good weather. Make sure to ride the trails as early as possible (9:30 - 10:45) or late (15:30 - 16:30) to have the most fun. Use considerate riding behavior and observe the "Share the trail" rules.
