    In Moosbronn bei der Kirche geparkt, größerer Parkplatz. Zum Mahlbergturm und auf zum Bernstein kürzere Anstiege auf schmalem Steig mit Buntsandsteinfelsen. Neben den zwei Höhepunkten immer wieder schöne Aussichten ins Murg- und Rheintal. Leider war der Himmel bedeckt (zeitweise Sprühregen), daher die Sicht beschränkt. Zum Schluß leider ca. 2 km Asphalt. Sehr sehnswert die Barockkirche Maria Hilf. Schlußeinkehr im Gasthof Mönchhof, empfehlenswert. Empfehlenswerte Tour im Nordschwarzwald

    Tolle Wanderung mit vielen interessanten Infos zur Gegend. Auch gut als Wanderung am späten Nachmittag geeignet, da der Weg immer noch in der Sonne liegt (Ausnahme im Moosalbtal). Um die „Antoniuskapelle“ zu sehen, ist ein kleiner Abstecher vom Weg erforderlich (Richtung Straße Freiholsheim nach Völkersbach, nicht eingezeichnet). Die Aussicht auf dem Plateau ist hervorragend (Bereich Alter Sportplatz/Flugplatz). Auch im weiteren Verlauf gibt es immer wieder tolle Weitblicke.

    Ich bin positiv überrascht. Die Tour ist viel schöner, als die Darstellung auf der Karte vermuten lässt. Es sind wirklich schöne Passagen auf tollen Pfaden dabei. Allerdings bin ich die Tour andersherum gelaufen. Daumen hoch und danke fürs Einstellen.

    Abwechslungsreicher Weg, wir haben ca 1h50 gebraucht (entspannt gelaufen). Einige Sitzmöglichkeiten, am besten Wanderschuhe anziehen (teils leicht schlammige Wege). Wir kommen wieder!

    Sehr einfache Runde auf überwiegend (mehr oder weniger gut) asphaltierten Forstwegen. Daher gut für jedermann geeignet. Immer schön durch den Wald und mit dem Wanderparkplatz sehr gut erreichbar.

    Der Weg ist super schön. Abwechslungsreich und interessant mit immer wieder schönen Ausblicken. Viele Sitzbänke und eine Himmelsliege laden zum Verweilen ein. Kann ich nur empfehlen. Der Parkplatz war nicht angezeigt. Könnte man noch machen.

    Super tolle Runde! Toller Wegemix. Nicht super anspruchsvoll, aber auch kein ganz einfacher Spaziergang. Besonders für die zweite Hälfte ist festes Schuhwerk empfohlen. Schöner Rastplatz nach ca. 4km am Lindenbrunnen in Moosbronn.
