Photos to support your claim:



Additional information: I really don't get it anymore... There are 4 trails to go by bike with their name on the written on the signs and there is additional a trail to go by foot (hard to read here, ok. But during bad weather the photo got to dark) with direcations, name and sign. Additionally I added information about this trail to go by foot in the description (taken from the official website, no copy and paste) and it still gets rejected! I already tried only focussing on the bike trails or only focussing on the trail by foot; gets rejected every time. Since Niantic hasn't even reviewed an appeal submitted BEFORE they deactivated them for a few weeks I have to ask here:

This is acceptible and meeting the criteria (as written here: https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/comment/155876/#Comment_155876) right?

Thanks in advance

    The only tip I could give is if the first photo is your main picture is to change your framing. Focus on the named trails instead of showing all signs. The benifit here is that currently my first impression is someone is trying to get regular direction signs accepted which afaik are not acceptable (the directions to other towns etc.. so not a named hiking/biking route).

    Reviewers are known to wont to be bad, so this initial bad impression can make your chances of wrongful rejection higher. There is really no need to include all signs in the first place (at least not on initial submission, maybe an edit later?) So that's the best advice I can give. You can also appeal (will take some time), or simply resubmit and hope reviewers do a better job next time.
