All further useful information about the Bike Flowtrail Schwarzsee can be found on our website: https://fribourg.ch/de/schwarzsee/outdoor-aktivitaeten/bike-flowtrail-schwarzsee/?utm_source=komoot_collection_de&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=JO26&utm_content=bike-flowtrail-schwarzsee

The Flowtrail Schwarzsee offers pure biking fun in the middle of the Fribourg Prealps. With flowing corners, small waves, and dreamlike views of the Schwarzsee, the trail is perfect for those who want to combine riding pleasure and nature. Whether as a relaxed after-work loop or a sporty trail adventure – every mountain bike fan will get their money's worth here. Between Riggisalp and Schwarzsee, the trail leads through a varied landscape of forests, pastures, and impressive views of the lake and mountains. With a length of 3.6 kilometers and 427 meters of descent, the trail is classified as moderately difficult in the upper section and easy further down. A separate entrance to the lower section (Start Blau) provides families and beginners with younger children with particularly easy access. A gentle track with playfully designed obstacles ensures a smooth, relaxed riding experience on the bike. Those looking for more action will find additional, technically more demanding elements along the route. These are deliberately designed so that less experienced riders can easily bypass them at any time via a "Safe Line".

great view over the entire Schwarzsee

If the 4km loop around the lake is too short for you or you want to hike a little without all the hustle and bustle, here is an alternative. The lake tour can also be perfectly extended with the loop around Rohrmoos at the entrance to Schwarzsee. This addition is very rarely used by visitors. To do this, walk up the street next to the SchwarzseeStärn restaurant at the Gypsera car park, where you have a fantastic view of the lake. After 1.3km (from Gypsera), at Schlossisboden, near the house, take the dirt road to the right down, following the yellow hiking trail markings, towards the Burstera residential area. About half of this 400-meter dirt road is not suitable for strollers due to large stones. At the Burstera district, you come back onto a road and as soon as you get to the bottom, turn left to take the loop around Rohrmoos and then follow the hiking trail along the Sense back to the Gypsera car park. A very worthwhile additional loop with little hustle and bustle ;-) There is also food and drink directly on the route. The Jailhouse Rohr restaurant serves delicious burgers and more. The restaurant is only open in the winter season (from the beginning of December to the end of March), the rest of the year it is a rental space. At the health center there is the "fein & sein" where you are also well looked after and a beautiful terrace invites you to linger. Length of the additional loop Schlossisboden including Rohrmoos 4.5 km with 123 meters of elevation. Length of the additional loop Schlossisboden but without Rohrmoos 2.8 km with 111 meters of elevation. Length of the additional loop Rohrmoos but without the route and elevation above Schlossisboden and without the top view over Schwarzsee: 3.5 km with only 35 meters of elevation. This variant is completely suitable for strollers but the first 800 meters of hiking trail directly along the Sense to Rohrmoos also take you back to the Gypsera car park. Halfway through the walk around Rohrmoos there is also a playground, picnic table and public toilet 😊

You can enjoy a meal break with a view of the lake in the restaurant or on the benches on the shore.

Beautiful terrace right on the lake.

And why is it called Schwarzsee anyway? Because - according to legend - a giant once washed his feet in it and thus polluted the water. Today, however, the small body of water is a picture-book lake. With bars on the shore and numerous hiking trails. https://www.teddy-b.ch/ausflugsziele/schwarzsee-fr-alles-fake-oder-was/

The Schwarzsee is always worth a trip.
