Hirschkopf MTB Trail Tour

Compact trail ride around the Hirschkopf with a fun mix of forest tracks and singletrack. It’s mostly unpaved, with plenty of gravel and some loose sections, so expect good grip in dry weather and a bit of slide when it’s wet. The climbing is short and punchy, and there’s more drop than gain overall, making it a nice after‑work lap or skills session.

You’ll roll up on wider forest roads and dive down on narrower paths that can get rooty and rocky in spots. A trail or XC bike is perfect. Go tubeless if you can, run sturdy tires, and check your brakes—there are a few fast bits.

No fixed start point; just hop on from a local trailhead or access road near Hirschkopf. Watch for hikers, keep speeds in check on shared sections, and avoid riding right after heavy rain to protect the trails.
