Grenzweg

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 Playrules 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 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 Grenzweg trail connects the Anninger Uphill with the Husarentempel. It follows a forest road that’s easy to ride on. While the trail starts out flat, it becomes a bit hillier on the way to the Husarentempel. You’ll need a bit of energy for the final climb. But you can recharge during a break at the Husarentempel—with a magnificent view over Vienna and all the way to the Anninger-Sender. Sporty cyclists can join the technically challenging Husarentempel Trail from the Husarentempel and ride back to Hinterbrühl or Mödling.
For those who prefer a more leisurely ride: The Grenzweg is rideable in both directions and, as a blue-level trail, also serves as the return route to Mödling, connecting to the Anninger Trail. The Anningerstraße is not rideable downhill here; please stay on the easy Anninger Trail.
