🌿 Anninger Trail — Flowing Singletrack Through Forest Pines
One of the most enjoyable local trails, the Anninger Trail is a smooth, mostly moderate singletrack that runs along the Anninger hillside. It is perfect for riders who want a flowy descent with natural trail features, gentle berms, and some root or stone sections that add interest without being overly technical.
The trail winds through dense pine forests that give a Mediterranean vibe in warm months, and includes a viewpoint above Friedrichswand, ideal for stops and photos.

🪵 Alte Rodelbahn — Historic Bobsled Track Turned MTB Line
Ride a piece of local history! The Alte Rodelbahn trail follows the former line of an old bobsled run, now repurposed as an MTB descent with gentle flow, wall rides, and classic trail features. While generally easy, it’s a fun way to link other trails and enjoy a historic spin.

🌄 Multi-Loop Trail Options — Anninger Loop & Beyond
