The S1 Ämmehorn Trail is flowing and has no obstacles, roots or other biker delights. You can cycle it quickly without any surprises. It is a bit narrow at the beginning, with trees on the right and a sloping meadow on the left. Later you cycle through the forest, where it widens a bit. Right at the beginning you drive through a dent in the landscape where you can let the bike run so that you can crank it up again on the other side.

Beautiful flowing trail with a few hairpin bends, some benches to linger briefly in between. Partly quite rooty and sloping, but good to ride dry. I then stayed on the gravel road below, although the trail is still a little bit weather-beaten.
