2-cycle-Trailbau-Projekt_koenigsfeld

Königsfeld

"Pump or Jump" essentially describes a pump track with a gradient that blends elegantly into the natural landscape. With its numerous rollers and large banked turns, the trail offers plenty of combination and progression options, yet is still manageable for beginners, providing them with fun and moments of success.

The municipality of Königsfeld, in collaboration with its already active youth mountain biking community, has launched a flagship project. The trail was built by Noah Grossmann of 2-Cycle (Todtnau), Marcus Felski of Radde fährt Radd Trailbau (Neustadt), and architect Matthias Müller (Freiburg).
