Also known as: Todtnau
Germany's oldest bike park and 'cradle of German downhill'; Hasenhorn summit and southern Black Forest views.
Who in your group rides what
Whether everyone in your group gets a day at Bikepark Todtnau - the grades on offer, the named zones, and how mixed abilities split up.
Black technical race track; plus one blue/red Downhill Flow and the Wildride jump line for advanced riders.
Group split: less-experienced riders take the Downhill Flow line; advanced/racers take the black race track; all uplift by Hasenhorn chairlift. Both start from the 1026 m summit.
Best suited to experienced gravity riders; limited very-easy terrain, so mixed-beginner groups are less well served than at larger parks.
The riding
Natural steep forest downhill with roots, rock, and built jump features.
Steep, rooty, rocky World-Cup-grade downhill with high-speed and technical exposure; the flow and jump lines are lower but still advanced.
Signposted managed park; small trail set, easy to navigate; details on Trailforks.
Moderate; a smaller, niche park drawing dedicated gravity riders.
Season & conditions
2026 season stated roughly late March to early autumn; check operator for daily lift hours.
Spring to early autumn.
Downhill races on the historic 1996 World-Championship track (est).
