The bike tour to the Mittenberg is a classic in Chur. From the city centre, the ascent leads to the Fürstenwald forest and along the forest road towards Mittenberg. The downhill variant via Nasstobel-Sand, on the other hand, is less well known. Via a beautiful single trail and the flowing high-level trail towards Maladers you reach the somewhat hidden entrance to the Nasstobel Trail. The entrance is exposed and narrow, so it is a good idea to get off the bike here. After the first challenging hairpin bends the character changes and the path leads relatively flat and flowy downwards (in between there are even a few hand-shaped curves and jumps). The first section ends at the junction with the road. Here you drive uphill for a short time and already the entrance to the second section, the sand trail, follows on the right. A varied single trail with a hairpin derby at the end (which can also be avoided). In the old town you can finish the tour with pleasure.

Montée sympa sur une petite route gravier et descente un peu plus cahoteuse. Difficile à trouver le sentier...

Wäre an und für sich eine geniale Runde, aber leider ist der Nasstobel-Trail nicht mehr flüssig fahrbar. Stürme haben ihre Spuren hinterlassen und zahlreiche umgestürzte Bäume versperren den Weg. Man kommt dran vorbei, aber halt nicht fahrend. Zudem bricht der Weg an einigen Stellen langsam weg.
