    Die Tour führt durch hügelige Landschaft. Der Höhepunkt war für mich die imposante Farnsburg. Insgesamt hat mir die Tour nur mittelmässig gefallen, denn ein Grossteil des Wanderwegs führt durch den Wald. Für Waldliebhaber fällt die Beurteilung sicher anders aus.

    Wir haben heute diese 26 Summits-Wanderung gemacht, welche mir gut gefallen hat. Unterwegs hat es einige Picknickplätze, das Restaurant auf der Sissacherfluh kann ich empfehlen.

    Diese Tour ist wirklich sehr schön, auch mit Hunden. Man geht sowohl durch den Wald, am Waldrand entlang,als auch über Feldwege. Die Burg ist auch sehr schön und die Runde, die es dort vor Ort gibt, sollte man unbedingt machen und dabei die Schilder lesen und durch die "Ferngläser"schauen. Von mir eine absolute Empfehlung

    Tolle Wanderung. Beim Arxhof ist kein Durchgang mehr. Route durch den Wald bei Egg wählen. Somit verlängert sich die Wanderung etwas.

    Eine schöne kleine Wanderung in romantischer Natur. Für Wanderanfänger gut geeignet, da wenig Höhenmeter zu erklimmen sind.
