Welcome to the Green Trails Willingen.
The Green Trails in Willingen offer pure riding pleasure – both uphill and downhill. Two completely different routes, approximately 7 and 13 kilometers long, are available: For beginners, the K1 lift takes you up to the Ettelsberg and then descends exclusively in a flowing manner. Alternatively, you can take the varied 4-kilometer uphill ride and enjoy the flow on three additional trails – before the 4,5-kilometer descent into the valley.
