    Interessante, äußerst abwechslungsreiche Runde durch das Ried. Es ist alles dabei, was das Ried zu bieten hat, Seen, Moore, Wackelwald, Rinderweiden, der Bannwaldturm und die Riedwirtschaft. Bei der Streckenführung hat sich ein kleiner Fehler eingeschlichen: Nach dem kleineren, südöstlichen Teil der "8" zweigt der Weg nicht direkt an der Riedwirtschaft nach Norden ab, sondern erst 250m weiter westlich, nach dem Torfwerk.

    Anreise-Tipp: Umweltfreundich und auf besonders entspannte Weise mit der familienfreundlichen Räuberbahn (von Ulm - Aulendorf oder von Pfullendorf) bis zum Bahnhof Burgweiler, ca. 1,2 km nordöstlich von Burgweiler: www.raeuberbahn.de

    Teilweise bietet die Räuberbahn sogar Eselwanderungen ab Burgweiler an.

    Tolle Tour in einer einzigartigen, erhaltenswerten Landschaft. Gut ausgebaute und beschilderte Wege. Die Aussicht vom Bannwaldturm darf man trotz der 219 Stufen nicht versäumen! Insgesamt wirkt das ganze Areal sehr gepflegt, man sieht, dass hier viel Zeit, Mühe und Geld investiert wurde. Der lange Rückweg vom Bannwaldturm zum Riedhof hat uns bei hochsommerlicher Hitze etwas zu schaffen gemacht, das Wetter hatte aber den Vorteil, dass alle Wege trocken waren.
