Equipment

A safe and functional mountain bike is a prerequisite for all routes. Helmet and gloves protect against falls and can be supplemented with knee and elbow protectors on single/shared trails. A modern mountain bike with disc brakes and sufficient tire tread is recommended. For single and shared trails from the red difficulty level, a full suspension bike with modern geometry is recommended. Tools, tire levers, pump, and spare tube help in case of a breakdown. Enough provision (drinks and food) should be carried as well as a mobile phone and wind/rain jacket.

Safety information

Before each ride, check the functionality of brakes, tires, and suspension fork/shock absorber. Always ride with hazard awareness and controlled speed and adapt the route choice to the group's skill level and the terrain. The Fair Play rules must always be observed. Single/shared trails as well as built routes in trail parks and trail centers often feature stones, roots, steep sections, steps, and sharp turns that require specific riding skills. If in doubt, dismount and push the bike.
