In Kottenheim, cyclists can look forward to an almost three-kilometre circuit that has it all. The course is characterised by a steep climb directly after the start, followed by hilly terrain with numerous technical singletrail sections and fast descents. For the junior and hobby classes, the course has been partially defused and shortened, but still retains its physically demanding character. There will be plenty of opportunities for spectators to follow the racing action. In the start and finish area at the Bunnefixhütte, there will also be plenty of refreshments and other good views of the course.
