Oberstes Holz Forest Trails

Highlight • Forest

Cycling in the Upper Wood is always nice... Unfortunately, some of the paths on the edge are very coarsely graveled (timber transport). The inner paths are, however, very easy to drive on

After seeing a round of @Jette, Barney, Szimba und Gerlinde the other day, I thought I'd check out Obersten Holz... it's a nice area for a walk, but today the weather didn't really encourage me to go any further... but probably not my last visit, maybe it's also nice in summer when it's dry and warm.
