    Wir haben einen Teil dieser Tour heute durch den bunten Herbstwald mit Kindern gemacht. Außer am Burgstein hatten wir niemanden getroffen und den Wald fas für uns allein. Der Burgstein ist ungefähr in der Mitte der Tour und bietet sich als Rastpunkt und Picknickplatz wunderbar an.

    Sehr schöne, abwechslungsreiche Tour mit vielen Aussichten, Wiesen, Wäldern und erfrischendem Kühl an der Zwönitz. Der Rundweg ist perfekt mit der Straßenbahn erreichbar (C13, stündlich). Eine klare Empfehlung. :)

    An sich eine sehr schöne Wanderung. Man hat sehr tolle Ausblicke in die Landschaft und einen schönen Mix zwischen Wald und Wiese. Man durchquert auch 2 Ortschaften und kann die Burg Scharfenstein besichtigen. Die Navigation haut eigentlich immer hin, bis auf einen Part. Wenn man aus Scharfenstein hinausläuft muss man erst der Straße Richtung Zschopau folgen und dann links nach Grießbach abbiegen. Dann ist man auch schnell wieder auf der Route. Man sollte etwas geübter sein, da 2 Anstiege relativ steil sind, aber ich denke es ist für jeden machbar.

    Abwechslungsreiche Tour, unser Startpunkt war allerdings Einsiedel und wir wanderten auch entgegengesetzte Richtung. Trotzdem gut!

    Angenehmer und intensiver, gleichzeitig nicht über die Maßen anstrengender Rundweg. Es erwarten einen Felder, Wald und Wiesen. Die schönen Ausblicke von der Dittersdorfer Höhe sowie vom Burgstein sind empfehlenswert!
