We cycled through the gorge in 2025. The paths are very washed out by rain. Currently, the ground is covered with large, loose stones. We were lucky that we did the loop from Walchensee toward Eschenlohe; in my opinion, the uphill sections in the opposite direction are impossible to manage by bike.
