How about an after-work session?

Get out into nature for an after-work walk!

Written BY

Mountain biking. I love this sport. That's why after work I head out into nature for an after-work ride! But there's an opening hours sign saying I can ride until 7 p.m. Why? Nature conservation, consideration for animals, game and hunting. 

Understandable - but unfortunately also quite frustrating. Wouldn't it be easier if all the necessary people sat down at a table with experts and developed a long-term overall concept with interesting after-work tours that are not critical in terms of nature conservation, as well as a trail center close to the valley that is accessible whenever possible and cool guiding trails and hiking paths?

It would be good, but it wouldn't be easy. Why? Lots of landowners, nature conservation, water rights, forestry and hunting interests, internal disputes and stories, interpersonal issues... Unfortunately, the joint meeting often ends more closed than it begins. Or should we just take a step back and forget everything in the interests of a long-term solution?

I think my after-work ride would be worth it.
