Description

The access road to the trails ascends steadily and rewards with a great panoramic view from the 642.8 m high Höllkopf, the highest mountain in Hesse in the Westerwald.

Then the traditional “24-Stunne” trail, the “WWS” trail, the “Wennelstaa” trail, and “Rüwwer und Nüwwer” offer lots of riding fun.

The MTB BikePark Driedorf is a public sports facility supported by the Hessian Ministry for the Environment, Climate Protection, Agriculture and Consumer Protection and is available free of charge to all private users. The MTB BikePark Driedorf was applied for official approval under the leadership of the municipality of Driedorf and built through voluntary work.
