Murgtal-Trails (Baiersbronn)

The Hirschkopf tour is one of the Baiersbronn trail classics. In this modified version, the trails are combined into a wonderful circular tour that reflects the character of the region well.

Description

From Baiersbronn, you initially climb up a gravel road to Zimmerplatz and thus to the start of the Schank Trail. This is well rooted and quite bumpy, but a great ride. There are even one or two hairpin bends with an alpine character. So you whizz down to the edge of the forest near Baiersbronn and then tackle the transfer to Friedrichstal. This section is a wonderful combination of singletrail descents, singletrail climbs and gravel sections in between. You finally reach the cycle path to Freudenstadt and follow it almost to the edge of the town. Now there is a worthwhile additional loop via the Fuchsrain trail, a winding, flowing forest descent that ends at the gravel road that we already know from the ascent. It goes back up to Freudenstadt and instead of turning off into the additional loop, you roll straight on and ride through the Hirschkopf on the east side. This section rides for quite a long time on gravel roads due to a lack of trail alternatives. The reason for this unspectacular intermediate section is the Reichenbach Trail. This starts at the upper Hastensteige and is a long super trail. Good mountain bikers hardly need to use the brakes here. So you whizz down into the valley, climb a little above the Klosterquelle spring and then join the Reut-Häberle trail opposite. You ride around Klosterreichenbach on this trail, change sides of the valley at Haselbach and ride along the edge of the forest back to Baiersbronn.
