118 Waldburg Runde

The starting point is ideally positioned thanks to the car parks and the cosy Wimbergstüberl restaurant right next to the Waldburg sports ground.

From here, it's straight into the forest, a short gravel descent and you reach Mitterreith. The route is varied with no significant metres in altitude and leads through forest and meadows to Guttenbrunn. With a bit of luck, you can watch daredevil parachutists landing as you ride directly alongside the Freistadt airfield. About 200 metres away, two culinary stops await the pleasure cyclist: the Gasthaus Dunzinger invites you to linger in comfort and there is a small farm shop with regional delicacies for on the way or at home.
The route continues on great paths with gentle ups and downs to Schöndorf before a short, crisp climb on the goods road to Freudenthal. From here, you ride through beautiful forests to the northernmost point of the tour, the village of Summerau, which you leave on a goods road to Labach.
A gravel path leads between fields to St.Peter, a small village situated above Freistadt that offers a small farm shop run by the Sollberger family as well as a magnificent view of Freistadt and its historic old town. The following metres will make mountain bikers' hearts beat faster, a great descent on a single trail down to the railway line and then a ride south on the horse-drawn railway track. Crossing the Böhmerwald main road, you ride under the Kronbach bridge of the horse-drawn railway line, a viaduct from times gone by. From now on, it's time to grit your teeth again, the last ascent is a tough one, 100 steep metres of elevation gain away from the asphalt bring you back to the starting point in Waldburg.

Nature is always there for us. So it's only fair that we are there for nature too.
