Important notes that must be observed before riding:

The gravel bike routes published here are purely digital route recommendations. Riding is entirely at your own risk. We assume no liability for accidents of any kind, including forest-typical hazards (e.g. falling branches, toppled trees, unforeseeable obstacles on the path). Please always ride attentively and with the necessary caution. Be sure to observe local notices and regulations.

Our recommendations for safe and considerate gravel biking:

1. Use only existing paths and do not leave the recommended route. This protects nature and prevents erosion.

2. Respect other path users: Be considerate of hikers, other cyclists, and riders. Yield and communicate politely.

3. Always adjust your speed to the respective conditions: consider your riding skills, the path surface, the weather, and other users.

4. Protect animals and nature: Stay on the paths, avoid riding at dusk or night, keep distance from wildlife, and do not leave any litter.

5. Take your rubbish back with you: everything you bring – from packaging to tissues to spare parts – must be taken back with you.

6. Wear suitable equipment: helmet, lights, tools, spare parts, possibly provisions and enough water are part of the standard equipment.

7. Plan ahead: check weather and path conditions, take care of your bike and equipment – and inform yourself about the route in advance.
