route

1. cross our bridge, short steep road climb before exhilarating downhill in the woods with small natural jumps and twisty paths.
   
   
2. steady technical climb (rocky) next to babbling brook before arriving at mountain lake, cold water swimming for all! continue climbing till lunch stop, the weissbier here tastes great.
   
   
3. descend on same track for 10 mins before heading into technical steep singletrack, small climb before fast 'grin-making' singletrack gully.
   
   
4. gentle cycle paths back to the farm, stops for beer or ice cream or enjoy a bit more biking if you'd prefer.

other

remember to take your suncream as the tree cover is minimal at the top of the mountain. Don't worry this is just one example of how to complete this route, other possibilities are available if the group prefers.
