Beautifully designed trail, hardtail and suitable for beginners. Advanced skiers can really let it rip here.

February 24, 2024,Winter-Tour: Birkenau 1 mit Stiefelhöhe rechts

Classic round this time to the right. Always beautiful. Stop at Cafe Morgenstern. Expensive but good. Few photos as the weather wasn't good. However, it was so good that we didn't need the rain jackets.

July 24, 2024,Panorama-Tour mit Trails: Birkenau 1 von Weinheim

Classic Birkenau 1 round ( mtb-geo-naturpark.de/strecke/birkenau-b-1 ) with boot height and a few trails around Weinheim. Stop at the Stiefelhütte. The food here is not so good, but a Bockwurst is always good. Final stop at the Weinheim market square

January 6, 2024,Winter-Tour: Birkenau 1 mit Abstecher zu Stiefelhöhe

Well-known tour with a detour to Stiefelhöhe, always nice. Since we drove to the left, there are some tough uphill trails. Eating at Café Morgenstern. Expensive but very good. Weather was OK, mud was appropriate for the season. In the end we drove the book blade trail. Advanced driving technique is required.
