Entenberg Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Between Entenberg and Egensbach you can get over the Entenbergpass. With the slope and the switchbacks to the highest point, there is a real sense of fit. Many (racing) cyclists take the pass as a training route.

Röthenbach Gorge

Highlight • Gorge

Beautiful, flowing trail along the Röthenbach. Changing subsoil from sand to firm forest floor to root path. Shouldn't be a problem for MTB riders (S0 / S1). Very narrow in places, so be considerate of hikers and other cyclists.

Nice trail flowig along the Röthenbach. Changing ground from sand over firm forest floor to the root path should not be a problem for MTB riders, S0 / S1. In some places very narrow, take care of hikers and cyclists.
