    Wirklich eine tolle Runde! Es fehlt an nichts! Auch meine Begleitung, welche das 3 mal auf dem MTB war, hatte unglaublich spass, auch wenn Sie ab und zu mal das Bike stossen musste (vorallem beim Leiterlitrail) Kann ich jedem Biker mal empfehlen. Was wir noch an warmen Tagen empfehlen würden, ist die Badehose mitzunehmen um am schluss sich in der Sihl abzufrischen! Hammer

    Um den Startpunkt herum etwas ugly aber sonst sehr schön und entspannt. Auch für etwas wärmere Tage gut, da man meistens im Wald ist. Alternative: wir hatten die Tour bei der Sternwarte Uitikon gestartet (weil Parkplatz). Um den weniger schönen Teil zu vermeiden kann man einfach dem Wanderweg unterhalb des Startpunktes folgen. Ist ein kleiner Umweg, lohnt sich aber.

    Super toller Wanderweg, ruhig. Der Uetliberg ist sehr aussichtsreich. Den Kanton Zürich auf einer völlig anderen Seite kennengelernt!

    Schöne Tour - aber der Singletrailabschnitt am Reussufer ist nur gut befahrbar wenn keine Wanderer unterwegs sind. Sonst wirds da sehr schnell sehr eng

    Danke Peter - die perfekte Tour! Der Uphill hoch auf der alten Bahnstrecke war ein super Training. Der letzte Downhill war jedoch zu hart für mich, konnte ich bei feuchten Bedingungen kaum runterschieben ;-) Ich brauche eine absenkbare Sattelstütze.....
