Fichtelride Bike Park Ochsenkopf

Highlight • MTB Park

There are currently two routes on the Ochsenkopf. A “family descent” that is relatively easy to master and the main route. It can be classified as a freeride route but also as a classic downhill route - also called “Fichtlriden”.

The trail is very rocky and stony in the upper section and is therefore not easy to manage for everyone. In the middle part the route type changes to more flowing with some natural and built jumps. There is a lot of air time in this passage. The fairytale forest that follows is unfortunately relatively flat, but with a bit of strength in your legs it is very fun and flowy to ride.

In the last section the route is fast, curvy and relatively challenging due to one or two roots, but with flow and a few fun jumps.

In addition to the bike center with shop, service and rental, the Bullhead House also has a rustic tavern with terrace, beer garden and sensational burgers. Located directly at the lift, the bike rental and shop are the ideal entry point to the bike park with the two-kilometer mountain bike downhill trail and the bike fun park.

The Bullhead House is also the ideal starting point for tours around the Ochsenkopf. A limited number of parking spaces are available directly at the house, otherwise the large car park directly at the south lift station is not far away. Super nice service, regardless of whether it's an inn or a Cube Center, and the prices are really okay.

Ochsenkopf Downhill Trail

Highlight (Segment) • MTB Park

The downhill route on the Ochsenkopf offers countless ways and opportunities to get down. Very challenging. The downhill route is right by the chair lift. A helmet and a suitable MTB should be compulsory equipment here. MTB's and eMTB's can be rented at the Bullheadhaus.

Ochsenkopf East Descent Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Interesting for hikers and bikers alike. At weekends, both sides have to be considerate, my experience says politeness wins and the hikers "like" to make room.
Now I bike up and down the Ochsenkopf-Ostabfahrt and I would like to classify you as S3, especially if you take the upper part with you at the beginning of the descent and drive through it, when you drive up to the end and do not turn left to the gravel path beforehand.

Downhillers and experienced bikers have a lot of fun.
Occasional & e-bikers should take a different route, pushing / carrying bikes would be out of place

The Bullhead House is probably the central point for mountain bikers in the Fichtel Mountains. It is really impressive what has happened here in recent years, both in the house itself and outside. When the weather is sunny, a large roof terrace invites you to take a short rest or have dinner (but come early, we were late once and the kitchen was already closed, I think we were told 7 p.m., but I'm not quite sure and I can't find anything on the website). There is a bike shop with lots of accessories and clothing and of course a workshop. The lower part of the "bike park" Ochsenkopf is also being built by the Bullhead House, as far as I know, and here (in contrast to the upper part) you can really speak of a bike park with different lines for different levels of riding ability. The flow trail is probably fun for everyone, there is a drop battery with 3 heights, right in front of the house it gets spectacular with road gaps, wall rides, etc., but there are also tables, etc. as an alternative.

Delicious food (burgers!), a super new sun terrace with chilled-out furniture, plus bike rental with a service workshop.
