I know the area and have ridden there many times. However, I must warn you that there are a lot of thorny bushes there and if you don't want to get a flat tire after 100m, you should go tubeless or be careful.

Extension of the single trail from Heyerode to the Waldschlösschen. Quite rough but very easy to drive on.

Nice start, narrower and attractive paths, which, however, have a few holes and obstacles (windbreak, trees) further down.
