VTT N°49 - Anitch
Beschreibung
Unter all den Möglichkeiten, die das Aspe-Tal für Enduro-Mountainbikes bietet, bleibt der Bois d'Anitch sicherlich die Referenzabfahrt. Mit seinen 1000 m Höhenunterschied und einigen Pedaltritten zur Wiederbelebung ist die Atmosphäre in diesem Wald unvergesslich. Der Aufstieg auf der Straße kann mit dem Shuttle-Bus zurückgelegt werden. Es bleibt dann eine 20-minütige Annäherung auf einem Pfad an der Flanke. Der Weg reiht eine Folge von rollenden Abschnitten, Engpässen, Wurzeln und Steinen aneinander. Die mäßige Steigung verhindert, dass man zu sehr auf die Bremsen tritt, abgesehen vom Finale auf der Wiese! Achtung: Diese Route wird von Wanderern mitbenutzt.

Schritte
Crossing to the ridge
Go up the path that starts with a "challenging" section. It then crosses through a beautiful beech forest requiring good physical ability and balance if you decide not to put your feet on the ground! you will have to carry your bike for a few metres anyway. Continue on this ledge path and reach the ridge. There are gullies at some points so make sure the pedals don't touch. Avoid falling in certain areas as there are steep slopes.
Magical Anitch Woods descent
Cross the stream and take the right-hand path. It starts out rolling followed by a kick-start that then runs into the paved bank and stream section. It may not be too strenuous but take a right on the gravelly bed and cross the stream. Continue on the path you can see clearly. The terrain changes with earth, roots, pebbles and even a carpet of foliage.
Connection
Fork left and ride on the widening path that gets very pebbly. Go past the bridge and down the path that has tarmac and gravel in places. Take the path ahead at the first bend. Continue along this rolling fun-filled ledge section that's ideal for overtaking!
End
At the crossroads, take the dirt track, go through the gate and down the gravel road. Go through the bends and when your view opens out, in a straight line, dive down a path on the right. The narrow single track on a bank rushes through a meadow and goes into the woods. Take a right at the crossroads and glide onto the enclosed path. The last few metres stand out for a short rocky section.
Sehenswürdigkeiten

The Billare

Mill
As you come out of the woods, after the footbridge there's an old mill moved by the stream coming from the Cabane de Boué.
