    Die Tour beginnt mit einem intensiven Aufstieg von ca. 268 hm auf 2,1 km, für die ich (auch aufgrund unzähliger Fotos) etwas über 1 Stunde benötigte. Zum Gipfel des Monte Brione kommt man letztlich nicht, weil hier die Antennenanlagen abgesperrt stehen - daher auch gar nicht erst den Umweg dorthin machen. Für 7,5 km bei ca. 360 hm benötigte ich letztlich 3 Stunden. Rechnet man die Zeit für die Fotos raus, liegt man irgendwo zwischen 2 und 3 Stunden. Tipp für Fotografen: Entweder sehr früh starten, wenn die Sonne noch weit im Osten steht oder später, wenn sie eher gen Südwesten steht. Gerade am Anfang der Tour gehen nahezu alle Ausblicke gen Monte Baldo Massiv und man fotografiert sonst stark gegen die Sonne. Später hat man zwar noch Ausblicke gen Westen bzw. Nordwesten, dass dürfte aber bei Start am späteren Mittag noch passen. Bilder folgen...

    Hele leuke wandeling, let op bij de afdaling is het erg steil! Vlak voordat je bij het hokje voor de tickets komt heb je nog een mogelijkheid om wat te drinken.

    Giro molto carino e piacevole per famiglie con animali domestici ma si potrebbe fare qualche modifica a questo percorso per visitare le trincee 🤩... ci sono tavolini per picnic poco prima delle cave alte (puliti e ben tenuti con ottima vista).

    Die Wanderung ist wirklich wunderschön. Allerdings ist sie nicht ohne. Durchaus anstrengend und mit viel Steigungen. Mehr als nur ein Spaziergang. Aber sehr lohnend.

    Eine sehr schöne Wanderung auf der ersten 3/4 der Strecke. Teilweise ist absolute Trittsicherheit gefragt. Die Tour ist für Kinder und Hunde, die sich nicht an die Berge gewohnt sind nicht geeignet. Zudem läuft man nach ca. 3 km. einem schmalen Weg entlang, neben dem es rechts 200 Meter senkrecht nach unten geht, das alles ungesichert ohne Warnschilder!!! Ich finde dies fahrlässig!!! Der Rückweg ist an einer Strasse entlang…

    Zuerst ein steiler Aufstieg über die teilweise großen Stufen, dann flacher zum höchsten Punkt. Eine sehr abwechslungsreiche Wanderung mit fantastischen Aussichten. Eventuell ist es möglich, über den Aufstiegsweg zurückzukehren, um auch beim Abstieg das Panorama zu genießen

    Die Aussichten und die alten Kriegsanlagen sind eindrucksvoll. Die vielen sehr hohen Treppen im Aufstieg sind aber schon garstig und nur bedingt Kinder- bzw. Familienfreundlich.

    Suggestiva passeggiata nel bosco di castagni tra Drena e Braila, con vista su Dro e sulla valle dei laghi. Si passa anche per un percorso artistico. Occhio che al mattino è in ombra.
