    Schöne Panoramatour, allerdings ist der Pfad hinter der Marienburg, sehr schlecht zu gehen, nach Baumfällarbeiten schlecht wiederhergestellt, bei Regen absolute Rutschgefahr da auch steil am Hang.

    Eine sehr schöne zu gehende Panoramarunde zu dem schönsten Aussichtspunkt in der Moseleifel! Wir waren total begeistert von dem Ausblick! Aber auch sonst eine schöne Runde mit ein paar Pfaden sowie der schönen Marienburg.

    Schöne Runde, wenn auch viele breitere Schotterwege, da man unglaublich viele Modelblicke hat. Marienburg und der Aussichtsturm am Prinzenkopf, sowie Ausblicke auf die Kanonenbahn stellen super Highlights dar.

    Toller Ausblick auf die Mosel und Weinberge; größtenteils asphaltierter Weg mit wenig bis gar keinem Autoverkehr (im Februar); nette kurze Abschnitte durch den Wald, über Stock und Stein, sodass die Runde abwechslungsreich ist.
