    Schön und abwechslungsreich. Der Forstweg entlang der Hänge der Ratzinger Höhe verläuft schattig und ohne Aussicht, erst am Schluss öffnet sich der Wald und man kann eine Ecke des Simsees erspähen. Der Rest der Strecke ist meist offen und sonnig.

    Schöner abwechslungsreicher Weg! Aber eher nichts für heiße Sonnentage! Circa 2/3 des Weges sind ohne Schatten!
