Anninger Trail_mittel

Before every ride, check that the brakes, tires, and suspension fork/shock are in good working order. Always ride with an eye out for hazards and at a controlled speed, and choose a route that suits the group’s riding ability and the terrain. The Fair Play rules must be observed at all times. Single/shared trails, as well as built trails in trail parks and trail centers, often feature rocks, roots, steep sections, steps, and sharp turns that require a certain level of riding skill. If in doubt, simply dismount and walk your bike.

A safe and roadworthy mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. A helmet and gloves provide protection in the event of a fall, and knee and elbow pads can be added when riding on single or shared trails. A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and sufficient tire tread is recommended. For single and shared trails rated red difficulty or higher, a full-suspension bike with modern geometry is recommended. Tools, a tire lever, a pump, and a spare inner tube will help in case of a flat tire. You should also carry enough food and drink, as well as a cell phone and a windbreaker or rain jacket.

The trail starts at the Grenzweg and leads to the starting point of the Anninger Uphill. On the final section of the Anninger Trail, there are three different routes. The blue route offers an easy descent. The red and black routes are a highlight for technically skilled riders. The final section features stone steps and root-covered sections—please take a close look before riding!

Unfortunately, there are no establishments right along the route. But you can take the Gasthaus Bockerl–Prießnitztal shuttleto stop for a bite to eat at Gasthaus Bockerlfrom Prießnitztal.
