Highlight • Trail

In winter, things get very fast across the field on the L3 between Pöbel bones and Stephanshöhe. In summer, the green meadows and the nearby Schellerhau offer a beautiful sight.

Wonderful tour with wonderful views and a lush green landscape. The route is well signposted and there are always places to stop for refreshments.
It was a bit hot☀️☀️🥵, but that doesn't scare a biker 😎.
Loop 1 was super nice. I'll be back, but then all 3.
