Thurner classic trail 15.6 km (shortcut: 8 km, 10 km and 12 km)
Mittel
The Thurner Trail is considered to be one of the most beautiful cross-country ski trails in Germany and is something for those who really enjoy the sport. This tour is also suitable for beginners as there are several shortcuts. The tour can be shortened to 8 km, 10 km or 12 km.
Beschreibung
Climbs, descents and flat stretches alternate without getting boring. The constant change between forest and open countryside is also varied. There are some wonderful views of the mountain Kandel, the valley Dreisamtal, the town of Breitnau, the mountain Feldberg and even the Alps.
The descents are not difficult as there are no sharp bends and the runners are automatically slowed down at the end by the uphill sections. Be brave!
The Thurnerspur cross-country trail is always very dependent on the weather and snow conditions. For up-to-date information on our trails, call the snow hotline on 07669/1020 or visit www.thurnerspur.de.
Wegbeschreibung
The trail starts at the Loipenhäusle, where an entrance portal marks the start of the trail. The trail climbs steeply at the Waldbauer, where the alpine views are thrilling, and the descent to the Fahrenhalde gives you a brief respite before climbing the steep ramp to the Eckershäusle. The Westweg, now snow-covered, crosses the 1190m high Weißtannenhöhe. At a fork in the forest path, the Schonach-Belchen cross-country ski trail branches off towards Hinterzarten. The legendary trail runs along the Thurnerspur for part of its 100 kilometres. The trail returns in a wide arc to the Eckershäusle, which has been a cross-country skiing centre for a number of years. Here you can refuel before the last few kilometres. There are a few more climbs before a final descent brings you back to the cross-country skiing centre.
