The route starts in Saalfeld and runs along the Saale to Schwarza and over Bad Blankenburg into the Schwarzatal. With steep climbs it goes towards Silberberg, past the Griesbachfelsen, the Teufelstreppe, and the Fürstenstand. Through the towns Böhlscheibe and Cordobang, you reach Schwarzburg over the Trippstein, with a magnificent view of the Schwarzatal. The armory of Schwarzburg Castle shows the oldest and only completely preserved princely armory collection in Germany. A small but fine highlight can be found further on - the water swing directly on the Schwarza. Uphill, the tour runs along wide forest paths past the Mooshäuschen to Dittersdorfer Höhe with a wonderful panorama. From the highest point of the tour, it goes briskly downhill on wide forest roads and woodland paths back into the Schwarzatal, to the Eberstein hunting lodge. On the following single trail, you come back via the fish breeding station to Bad Blankenburg - a short stop at Chrysopras dam must not be missed here. From there, it goes over Kupferstraße back to the starting point of the tour.

Full-suspension mountain bike recommended but not mandatory. A bicycle helmet is part of the basic equipment, of course. Cycling glasses and gloves are advisable. A small daypack with some provisions and drinks is a good idea.
â Bike recommendation: All routes are naturally also rideable with a modern and well-equipped e-mountain bike.
The route is not signposted by waymarkers.
Riding the tour is at your own risk.
Currently, there is an increased danger from dying trees in the forest.
Further information can be found in the Thuringian Forest Law.
Trail tolerance: On large parts of the routes, you will be alone and isolated. Of course, there will also be sections or places where you will meet other nature lovers, be they hikers, riders, etc. All user groups in the forest share the joy of outdoor activity. Therefore, friendly and respectful interaction is self-evident. As a mountain biker, you ride defensively when you encounter others. A short stop and a friendly greeting contributes greatly to a good image of mountain bikers!
