August 7, 2024,Kleine Feierabendrunde – Blick in die Hegau Runde von Gottmadingen

Some sections of the trail are not passable because everything is overgrown. Otherwise a nice route. The last section in the forest "nice path for hiking" is not suitable for mountain bikes 🚵🏼‍♂️ because fallen trees block the path.

The green tunnel on the way up was quite overgrown, but it's nice that the path still exists. The beautiful, shady forest path we took on the way back is especially recommended.
