Weinbiet and Hellerhütte from Neustadt a.d.W. by Marc

Schöne und abwechslungsreiche Runde. S3 kann ich bestätigen, teilweise wirklich sehr schwer fahrbar. Zum Weinbiet hoch braucht man nen Leopard 2 zum Schluss, das ist schon fast klettern. Man kann einige der harten Trails aber easy umschiffen. Ich war mit nem 29 Zoll Hardtail auf der Tour und musste (logischerweise) 3-4 mal für ein paar Minuten schieben, konnte aber das meiste gut fahren. Zwei Federn sind aber empfehlenswert. Im Pfälzer Wald nichts ungewöhnliches, den Pfälzer Weinsteig hochradeln is halt so ne Sache.
