Frienisberger
Description
From Lyss, take the country road that rides to Kappelen to the go-kart track and turn left here to ride along the old Aare river to Aarberg. Here there is always the option of taking one of the single trails parallel to the forest roads. After Aarberg, you continue to follow the Aare upstream, this time on the eastern bank. You pass the Niederried reservoir and finally reach the Mühleberg nuclear power plant. You cross the dam wall a little further up on a small road and then start the ascent to Frienisberger. The descent is a mixture of single trails, forest paths and country roads and rides to Bundkofen. Here you first cross the railroad line and then the highway and reach the Dreibhubelwald forest north of Suberg, right on the outskirts of Lyss.
Alternatives: Many small singletrail sections on additional loops throughout the entire loop.

There are lots of smaller, cool trails and paths all around Frienisberg. The best way to reach these cool trails (S1, max S2) is to connect the following key points: the Bäreried Trail (near Münchenbuchsee) and the Chutzenturm, a lookout point in the middle of the forest. The detour to the Niederried Reservoir is worth it “only” for the scenery, not for riding trails. As described, the path west of the lake (as ridden here) is no longer permitted, so you’ll have to take a detour on asphalt or gravel at the top.
As Bierchermüesli describes above, this tour requires 0.0 riding technique. The entire tour would pass as a gravel tour. There would certainly be one or two trails on the Frienisberg, even if they were only short segments. Not a chance. Forest roads, forest roads, forest roads. Well - like many a Ride Magazine tour around Bern, this tour also seems to have been bobbing around in this database for a long time and is no longer accessible due to other routes and explicit bike and MTB riding bans. There are two bans from the weir at Niederried in the direction of the Mühleberg nuclear power plant. A detour of this tour would result in even more dirt tracks or asphalted roads. The descent from Frienisberg is also marked with paths that no longer exist. I assume that the tour is much older than ten years. The Chutzeturm (built in 2010) - which could be described as a tour highlight - is not approached, even though it is only a few meters away from the Ride Tour!
nice "Sunday ride" - has earned technology level 0.
