Krappenberg Trail

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

Singletrack to Oberlangheim

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

2.3 km long liquid singletrack, which meanders through the forest, the last few hundred meters it goes along the forest.
The difficulty is S0, with moisture / rain increases the difficulty as several roots cross and the soil is irregularly occupied by small stones.

Several varied lines to choose from. The uphill section rolls upwards along forest paths. Those who only want to surf the Krappenberg trails can park at the Lichtenfels animal shelter or, better yet, at the Meran swimming pool and set off directly.

Many thanks to the people who legalized these trails! 3 really good, fun sections! I'd love to come back here again! Highly recommended!

Blue is really blue, no jumps, but small waves, flowy spots and lots of curves. You shouldn't drive blue without some experience. Red accordingly much more demanding with jump options and tables. Well done.

Stupid question... Which side does the trail start from? Krappenberg or or from the side from the shelter direction? Thanks for the answer.
