This is how we love the Franconian Switzerland! Great tour with the right mix – steep climbs, many varied trails – sometimes flowing, sometimes tricky, sometimes rooty, sometimes rocky.

The bike tour "Sportlicher Genuss" was developed by the mountain bike group of the P-seminar: "Cycling around Eckental" 15/17 at the Eckental Gymnasium. The route is suitable for sporty leisure enthusiasts at a partially advanced level and highlights nature and the culinary delights of Franconia. Stops of the Gräfenbergbahn were chosen as start and finish points to ensure smooth arrival and departure. The return route along the train track can of course also be done by bike, but it is less appealing for mountain bikers.

This tour takes us to the Devil's Table near Gräfenberg. From there, we return to Hundshaupten via well-rideable land consolidation and field paths.
Except for about 100m (before and after the Devil's Table), all paths are well rideable and also suitable for touring bikes or eBikes.

Abwechslungsreiche kurze Tour mit fast allem was die Fränkische zu bieten hat.
Breite gute Wege, Single Trail, schnell Abfahrten, kurze knackige Anstiege und wenn man nicht vorbeifährt einen tollen Ausblick aus Walberla.
