    Eine wirklich sehr schöne und abwechslungsreiche Tour! Gleich am Anfang der Tour erfolgt ein ziemlich steiler Anstieg welcher im trockenem Zustand gut zu schaffen ist aber nach einem Regen könnte es sehr rutschig werden. Wir haben dieser Anfang Juni bei 28 Grad gemach. Hätten die Wolken nicht für ein wenig Abkühlung gesorgt, wäre es sehr anstrengend da man doch recht viel im offenem Gelände läuft. Ein Stern Abzug gibt es für 2 Streckenteile die an eine Schnellstraße entlang gehen. Da es ebenfalls eine beliebte Motorradstrecke ist, ist es nicht gerade angenehm dort zu laufen.

    Diese Tour hat mir sehr gefallen. Ganz schöne Tour - perfekt für einen Sonntag. Schwierig habe ich sie nicht gefunden, aber sie ist für Anfänger nicht geeignet, würde ich sagen. Am Anfang und am Ende befindet man sich in wunderschönen Ebermannstadt, und man kann dort ein Cappuccino oder ein Eis genießen...oder vielleicht ein Bier und Schäufele. ;) Ich denke, dass diese Tour ist sehr zu empfehlen.
