    Gewandert Jun 2025: Tolle Route mit spannenden Strecken. Allerdings waren im Wald einige Bäume auf den Weg gekippt und die Feldwege waren auch lange nicht mehr gemäht, sodass das Gras hüfthoch war. Ungefähr bei KM 14 (Steinbank mit Holzlatten) wollten wir eine Pause machen. Nachdem wir uns hingesetzt hatten, bemerkten wir einen wütenden Bienenschwarm. Dieser hatte unter die Sitzfläche ein Nest gebaut. Die Wege haben wir meist gut gefunden, nur sollte man sich nicht akribisch a die Wegbeschreibung halten. Für abenteuerliche Wanderer eine nette Route!
