In 2018, the Hessian state government decided that state forest areas taken out of use with an area of more than 100 hectares will be designated as nature reserves. This included the Landecker Berg, which is now largely left to natural development. The cessation of management of the state forest areas is intended to ensure an undisturbed development of the forest ecosystem and thus preserve the special species diversity there. The existing hiking trails X4/E6, X16, and L53 were allowed to be retained in the now marked route. The compromise was to merge existing paths where possible and to use as few marking signs as necessary. Please understand this and adhere to the rules in the nature reserve.

    Als ich die Rhöner Extratour „Soisberg“ auf der Webseite der Rhön-Info entdeckte, habe ich noch gedacht, schon wieder eine neue Extratour und dann nur 7,1 km lang. Und dazu soll ich hin und zurück fast 140 km fahren. Na ja, wenn man sich vorgenommen hat alle 35 Rhöner Extratouren zu laufen, muss man auch mal in einen sauren Apfel beißen. Aber so im Nachhinein kann ich nur sagen, eine absolut geile Tour. Man läuft fast nur außen vor dem Wald, hat dadurch fast immer freie Sicht und der 360° Rundumblick vom Soisbergturm ist einfach nur toll. (Außer man ist nicht schwindelfrei oder es ist so windig wie bei uns. Da schwankt der Turm nämlich merklich) So einen tollen Blick aufs Hessische Kegelspiel mit Wissels-, Rückers-, Appels-, Stoppels-, Klein-, Mors-, Stall-, und Lichtberg hatte ich selbst bei der Extratour Hessisches Kegelspiel nicht. Und auf dem höchsten der neun, dem Soisberg, stehen wir ja gerade. Also, ich würde die Tour jedem, der gern in der Rhön wandert, inzwischen uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Und wegen der nur 7,1 km Streckenlänge. Ich habe einfach eine Schleife von gut 4 km über Mansbach und den Grasberg davor getackert und so die Tour auf knapp 12 km gepimpt.
