Tips

Dominik Kegel

September 17, 2020

Mountain biking

Warning: when you cycle through the Neandertal (Neandertal Museum to Gruiten-Dorf), you are almost exclusively on a well-developed hiking trail. This is not for a racing bike. OK with touring bike, MTB or gravel bike. Please note that, especially on weekends, many hike there and are rather annoyed by cyclists. However, cycling is not prohibited. Try to avoid weekends and public holidays if possible.

The stone brain and the associated arrow are one stop on the sculpture path at the Neandertal Museum. As you cycle past (and hike) you can discover even more objects along the way.
