    Der Weg ist super ausgeschildert. Der Beginn mit dem offenen Nuhnetal wunderschön, dann ein etwas langweiliger Waldweg von der Nuhnebrücke aus, aber das legt sich dann wieder. Auf den Höhen dafür tolle Ausblicke in die Medebacher Bucht, die nicht umsonst auch die Toskana des Sauerlandes genannt wird. Insgesamt ein Weg, den man wieder gehen würde.

    Vrij zware tocht, stevig klimwerk om mee aan te vangen, tweede lichtlopende beklimming, terug naar het dorp door een lange afdaling. Mist en laag wolkendek ontnamen ons de vergezichten. Uitdagende wandeling.

    Uns hat die Runde sehr gut gefallen. Zunächst folgt man einem hübschen Kreuzweg zur Kapelle. Es geht stetig bergan. Man folgt eigentlich immer dem blauen WHT Schild. Zwischenzeitlich ist der Weg nur ein Pfad. Es geht zum Skigebiet bis ganz oben. Dann zum Ziegenheller-Aussichtturm. Ein prima Platz für eine Rast. Aber leider gibt es nur eine einzige Bank. Vom höchsten Punkt der Tour geht es abwärts durch einen wunderschönen Wald. Irgendwann biegt man rechta vom WHTweg ab zurück Richtung Züschen. Dann beginnt der langweilige Abschnitt der Tour (deshalb auch nur 4 Sterne). Es geht über einen breiten Schotterweg talwärts. Unten im Tal ist die Landschaft mit Wiesen wieder interessanter und es geht relativ gerade zurück nach Züschen

    Landschaftlich sehr schöne Tour! Wir haben zwar keine Wildschweine gesehen, dafür aber eine Fuchs! Zeugt für eine intakte Natur. Was uns aufgefallen ist, dass es wenig brauchbare Sitzgelegenheiten gibt.
