Singletrack in the Spessart Nature Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

very nice long singletrack through the forest from Geiselbach to Horbach. Good to drive, but with a short, very steep tail.

August 12, 2024,Spessartbiken Tour 20: „Gerichtswald-Pfade“ & Hufeisen-Trail 😵

The tour through the Linsengerichter Gerichtswald has a sporty touch. Uphill and downhill paths alternate with forest and farm roads. It is accompanied by the naturalness of the Gerichtswald. A tour that requires a certain amount of technical riding skills.

August 28, 2024,Spessart Biken Tour No. 20 - Gerichtswald-Pfade

The bike was fresh out of the workshop, so I had to do a proper test straight away. The penultimate Spessart biking tour that I still had to do was a good idea, especially since I only have a short journey from home. The officially stated 990 meters of elevation is much too high. I barely managed to get the …

A varied, entertaining tour through the beautiful Spessart. The climbs in the first half are truly challenging. You'll be rewarded with great descents. The trail section isn't that extensive, but it's nicely spread out. Fans of forest highways will get their money's worth.

May 1, 2024,Im Freigericht unterwegs....Gerichtswald-Pfade....nicht unanstrengend

Today we were out and about in Freigericht. We started in Eidengesäß and then followed tour number 20 for quite a long time. From Horbach we made a detour to our son and his wife in Altenmittlau, who had invited us to a barbecue 👍.
The forest paths are in good condition and the area is magnificent. But parts of …

Great Spessart tour in real spring weather👍

From Horbach we went past the Raue Heil, Kahler Kopf and Galgenberg back and up to the Franzosenkopf.

The route ran largely along the Gerichtswald paths (Tour 20 of the Spessartbiken network) extended by a few trails.
