Stay up to date! Here you will find all the important information about route closures, detour and regional special features that await you on your RockHead adventure. Whether it's capricious weather, construction work or spontaneous events - we keep you up to date so that you can pedal well prepared and don't lose any unnecessary gravel time.
We currently have the following reports:
In the period from 01.10. to 15.10.2025 inclusive, a large part of the forest areas in the Zittau Mountains will be closed due to soil protection liming by Sachsenforst from the air. This affects almost the entire route of the black section. Direct passage is not possible during this time!
We have set up a large-scale detour for this period. You can find it here. Although the detour will take you safely around the restricted area , it will leave out many of the scenic highlights of the Zittau Mountains. We therefore recommend - if possible - to ride the RockHead tour either before 01.10. or after 15.10.2025.
