Die Borderline wurde 2007 als erster offizieller Trail in Freiburg eröffnet.

Startpunkt ist am Rosskopf, von wo aus die Borderline nach Süden ins Dreisamtal zur Jugendherberge führt. Der obere Abschnitt ist steil und technisch anspruchsvoll, gespickt mit steinigen Passagen und größeren Stufen, die Fahrtechnik abverlangen. Weiter unten öffnet sich der Trail, wird schneller und bietet flowige Anliegerkurven, kleine Sprünge und seit 2025 auch eine neue Jumpline in Sektion 5 für extra Airtime. Richtung Ende sorgen steile, wurzelige Passagen noch einmal für Abwechslung.

Disclaimer

Nachtfahrverbot – Trail ausschließlich bergab befahrbar. – Keine abgesperrte Downhillstrecke, Fußgänger möglich!
