Greuther Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Very nice trail that culminates in a fast enduro-style descent. At the park bench, go up to the right onto a wall and then go for it. After about 150 meters, turn left again from the path.

September 22, 2021,Der Oberscheinfelder Trail-Klassiker: Friedrichsberg - Schwanberg - Speckfeld

Much more trail on a 50 lap (without detours and duplication) is not possible around Oberscheinfeld. Of the 55 kilometers (and 830 meters in altitude according to Sigma), the total length of the trail sections is 31 km (measured with "Brouter"). For the most part (at least when it is reasonably dry) it is easy to ride S0 and S1 …

.... is to surf your favorite TRAILS on the Schwanberg circuit in TRAIL mode.
I have done the circuit many times with the hardtail (without built-in tailwind) and it was always fun. With the e-Fully and a little more support than usual (Trail instead of Eco mode), the circuit is a bit easier, faster and above all the fun factor …

Finally a real mountain bike tour again 🤙
The weather was perfect and the trails in the forest were dry and easy to ride.
Roughly speaking, we went to Friedrichsberg》 Schwanberg》 Speckfeld ruins》 Birklingen》 Scharfeneck ruins and back home.
The days are getting shorter and so are my tours 😁 I was still quite groggy

Fast lap over Schwanberg, Friedwald and ruins of Scharfeneck.
The trails are still muddy and greasy as you can see from the pictures.

Nevertheless, I am satisfied with my performance!

I didn't want to withhold my favorite trail tour, which I rode completely for the first time this year, from Komoot. The tour is highly recommended for trail lovers who should get lost in the middle Steigerwald because of the high proportion of beautiful flowing trails!
Above all, I wanted to check the condition of the trails. The good news …
