Here you are in the biker Eldorado! You can go up and down almost everywhere, the coolest thing I find is the Eggwald trails towards Jona. Limitless pleasure!

Very flowing trail, easy up and down, some roots, everything S1. It runs in the easternmost part of the Jonerwald and ends in a small asphalt road right next to the Curtiberg.

At sub-zero temperatures, there is often black ice on the asphalt, but the gravel and forest paths and trails are quite easy to ride.

A longer trail ride was planned. At km 4.4 I took a photo and left my backpack behind - I only noticed it at km 9.0 - so I took everything back, luckily the backpack was still there (an honest hiker was just checking it looking for my address or phone number). After that I somehow didn't feel like continuing …

Relatively short afternoon ride in fantastic weather. The trails and paths in the shade are wet and slippery, but the temperature is quite pleasant for biking.
PS: about 200 meters too much elevation gain (artifact, inaccurately recorded), but komoot deducted km and speed again.

Today again only a short round, but with some trails, partly dry, partly muddy.
The steep section on the Zilwald downhill was closed due to logging and was also hardly passable, then a short alternative search, also muddy, so a short piece back to the ascent route.

One of my standard short rides. Brilliant weather, few people, quite a few trails (mostly S1, fewer S2).
