    Schöne Wanderung entlang an zwei Naturdenkmälern. Bei den Schwellen kann man sich auch gut abkühlen. Die Strecke über Efringen-Kirchen zieht sich etwas, so dass wir da abgekürzt haben. Es sind aber unheimlich viel Leute auf der Strecke unterwegs und die Schwellen sind besonders im Sommer extrem überlaufen. Man sollte beachten, dass die geänderte Lage zwischen den Schwellen und der Abbiegung nach Istein auf einigen Karten nicht eingezeichnet ist. Die neue Wegführung ist aber in der Wegbeschreibung erklärt. Ich kannte die Strecke noch von früher und war sehr erstaunt, dass der alte Weg plötzlich aufhörte. Die neue Wegführung geht nun viel näher an der A5 vorbei, was etwas nervt.

    Sehr schöne Rundtour durch zwei Täler, das Kandertal und das Seitental durch Wollbach nach Nebenau und Egerten Richtung Osten. Am Ende des Wiesentals biegt man ab in den Buchenwald bergan, um oben wieder zurück Richtung Westen zu laufen. Die Krönung ist die Aussicht oberhalb von Wollbach über das südliche Kandertal bis Basel und Jura bis zu den Alpen in der Ferne. Viele Abkürzungen sind machbar...

    Schöne und abwechslungsreiche Wanderung, die uns sehr gut gefallen hat (auch wenn wir zweimal von der Route abgekommen sind; im Zweifelsfall der gelben Raute folgen und man findet irgendwann wieder hin). Der Weg durch die Weinberge ist besonders schön. Die Strecke ist auch für Kinder gut zu bewältigen und bleibt durch die wechselnde Landschaft (Rheinufer/Weinberge/Wald) auch für die Jüngsten kurzweilig.

    Wundervolle, abwechslungsreiche Wanderung. Leider führt ein Stück entlang der A5 deren Geräuschpegel nicht zu überhören ist.

    Hallo und danke für diese schöne Runde. Einige Passagen stimmen wegen dem Baggerarbeiten am Rheinufer nicht mehr. Ich habe die Runde heute gemacht und würde gerne mein Track davon zur Verfügung stellen. Bei Interesse einfach eine mail an Danny-Mayer(at)gmx.de
