Wegebeschaffenheit
Beschreibung
For the very sporty mountain biker, it is possible to complete the summit trail in one day. The summit trail can be experienced more comfortably in several stages and on an e-mountainbike.
You have to set off early in the morning to be able to complete the entire summit trail with its almost 140 kilometres and 4000 metres of altitude in one day. So get on your bike and off you go! On your tour, you will ride through pristine forests, across secluded high pastures and panoramic mountains such as the Stübenwasen and the Hochfirst, from where you can see as far as the Alps and the Vosges on a clear day. Of course, you won't want to miss out on short detours and climb the peaks of the Feldberg, the Herzogenhorn and the Blößling. If you still have room in your rucksack for swimming gear, don't leave it at home when the weather is nice! The Titisee, Schluchsee and Schlüchtsee lakes are perfect for a quick refreshment before you tackle the next section of the route.
Wegbeschreibung
The summit trail starts at Neustadt railway station. From there, head towards Titisee. You pass the Kurhaus Titisee and the bathing area and leave the well-known Black Forest town. You pass Hinterzarten and cycle past the Mathisleweiher pond over the Rinken towards Feldsee. On your further route, you will pass the valley station of the Feldberg cable car and, after a steady ascent, pass the Todtnauer Hütte to the Stübenwasen. Here, your efforts and the metres of altitude covered are rewarded with breathtaking views. Over the Notschrei, past Muggenbrunn, you reach Todtnauberg. After a short climb, follow the summit trail signs downhill towards Todtnau. From there, you ride over the Gisiboden and the Blößling past various districts of Bernau before reaching Schluchsee via the Muchenland. There you cycle towards the dam wall and Seebrugg, from where you head for Rothaus. Via Balzhausen, a suburb of Grafenhausen, you reach Lenzkirch. Cross the small town and make your final ascent to the Hochfirst, where you can enjoy the view of Lake Titisee. Pass the Hochfirst ski jump and return to your starting point, Neustadt railway station.
