Great "facility" with lots of curves and jumps!

I rode through here for the first time. I was careful because there were sharp roots, narrow places, lots of boundary stones... winding, flowing, interesting, good balance and weight shifting required in places. At one point, there was a very high risk of falling because you can't see from far away that it's a deep indentation. I enjoyed it.

Beautiful trail that offers everything: lots of roots, stones, attention: there are also plenty of boundary stones, small jumps that are daring and practiced, narrow, winding trail. I enjoyed it in my own way! Just great!

Beautifully designed trail. Anyone can get through with a little care. There is also an alternative route before every major challenge. Well done, kudos to everyone involved. I liked it very much, I'll gladly take it with me again when I'm passing through.

Did you enjoy the trail? Then donate now via PayPal to your Trailkarma: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/hochrheintrails The Dead Sailor Trail by Herr Lehmann is a flow trail with a blue difficulty rating. The trail was designed as the region's first mountain bike trail to be fun for all skill levels, and even after repeated rides, there are opportunities to improve. In the upper section, you'll find many berms and jumps. In the middle section, a black line – the Captain's Line – branches off. This line is only suitable for very experienced riders and is clearly marked. Approximately 100 meters later, the blue and black lines rejoin and lead over a naturally maintained lower section (approximately 250 meters long) to a forest road. From the forest road, you can either ride directly to Herr Lehmann's for an after-ride beer or take the signposted uphill for another lap of the Dead Sailor Trail by Herr Lehmann. More information at: https://hochrheintrails.de/aarbergtrail-x-herr-lehmann Please observe the trail rules: - Ride at your own risk, only with a suitable mountain bike and protective gear (helmet and protectors). - Assess your abilities correctly and ride with foresight at an appropriate speed. - Be considerate of others. Keep the trail clear. Only ride in the designated direction. - Respect nature and leave no trash behind. - Stay on the trail (no shortcuts) and only ride during the day. https://hochrheintrails.de/trailrules

Very great trail, one or the other boundary stone is in the roadway, I find that more delicate than the appendix.
