With the right riding technique and a good bike, it's a lot of fun to blast down this sometimes steep, albeit short, section. 🤘🏼

Very steep and demanding trail. It's very short, but you can't get down there easily.

Beautiful MTB trail on Paulsdorf Spitzberg. As an entry choose the inconspicuous path on the left of the boundary stones, not at the edge of the field. Keep left at the next fork. Straight on, it goes up to the summit (Bike & Hike tip), but makes no sense with the bike. On the other side of the Spitzberg again arrived at the edge of the forest (nice rest stop with bench) now follow the re-exposed trail right before the penultimate tree. This was blocked for years by a fallen tree and now overgrown. Now biking on this section should be fun again.
