LISTEN TO SILENCE - the rustling of the Weißer Main accompanies you for part of the route, sometimes gently, sometimes strongly, as a former energy source or in the form of a Kneipp facility.
On this route, a detour to the Plassenburg is worthwhile.

    Schöne Wanderung, jedoch mit teilweise zugewucherten und schlecht Beschilderten Wegen. Der Abstieg von der Plassenburg ist schwer zu finden und so zugewuchert, dass man eigentlich eine Machete bräuchte. Gepflegt wird der Weg ganz offensichtlich nicht. Nach Ebersbach hört der Weg einfach mitten im Wald an einer durchforsteten Fläche im Unterholz auf. Man findet nur mit Müh und Not den Anschluss. Nun zu den schönen Seiten: wir sind an einem Feriensamstag im August keinem einzigen Wanderer begegnet. Man hat also absolut seine Ruhe. Gerade der Abschnitt zwischen Fölschnitz und Ebersbach ist so ruhig, dass man glatt meinen könnte, die Menschheit wäre verschwunden. Am Kneippbecken kann man wunderbar abschalten und die Seele baumeln lassen! Insgesamt empfehlenswert, aber die oben genannten Abschnitte sollte man versuchen zu umgehen.

    Sehr schöne Strecke! Man kann den Edelmann-Ringweg zu Fuß, oder auch mit dem MTB machen, beides ist wirklich sehr schön. Allerdings ist die Strecke im Bereich der Dreibrunnequelle nicht korrekt eingezeichnet, zudem ist der Abschnitt durch Forst- arbeiten stark beschädigt und deshalb für Moutainbike aktuell nicht zu empfehlen.

    Tour verläuft hauptsächlich durch schattigen Wald. Die Highlights sind der Naturlehrpfad, der Rehbergturm mit Aussicht auf die Plassenburg, an der der Weg im späteren Verlauf vorbeiführt. Ansonsten schöne Panoramen und immer wieder der Blick auf die Plassenburg.

    Die Route ist wirklich sehr gut beschildert. Man kann sich fast nicht verlaufen. Da die Strecke lange Zeit einem interessanten und abwechslungsreichen Naturlehrpfad folgt, ist sie auch für Kinder sehr empfehlenswert. Einziges Manko: Die in der App dargestellte Route weicht von der offiziell beschilderten ab.
