    Schöne Tour. Viel Natur und Stille zum Entschleunigen. Leider heftiger Zeckenbefall.

    schön angelegter Weg. Zwar gibt es ein paar Schotterwegstücke, aber meist geht man auf schmalen Pfaden. Lohnende Ausblicke. Gute Rastplätze. Wanderstöcke zu empfehlen.

    Sehr schöne Tour. Wir haben die Tour an der Kreisstraße nahe Breitau begonnen und sind im Uhrzeigersinn gegangen. Erstes Ziel war die Ruine Boyneburg und dann zur Mittagszeit der Teichhof in Grandenborn. Einkehr ist wirklich zu empfehlen.

    Ich kann nur bestätigen: absoluter Premiumweg. Ich bin mit allen Sehenswürdigkeiten auf 18 km gekommen. Wenn man entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn wandert, hat man schon gegen Anfang den Höhepunkt Boyneburg und im letzten Drittel nochmal längere steilere Ab- und Aufstiege. Vielleicht sollte man im Uhrzeigersinn gehen.

    Ein wirkliches Highlight! Tolle Aussichten, großteils ein echter Höhenweg, viele schmale Pfade und im Vergleich zu den meisten anderen P-Wegen auch teilweise ganz schön fordernd!

    Ich bin bereits unzählige vom deutschen Wanderinstitut bewerteten Premiumwege gegangen. Dieser hier ist mit 67 Punkten (01-2022) krass unterbewertet. Zugegeben, die ersten 3,5 km sind nicht so spektakulär. Aber dann geht es in den Wald, und dort weitestgehend auf naturbelassenen Wegen und Pfaden, nicht etwa auf mega-geschotterten Forstwegen, die manche besser bewerteten Premiumwege ausmachen. Die Tour ist lang, aber nie langweilig. Hinterher empfiehlt sich direkt am Ziel eine Einkehr im Teichhof, einem der klassischen Gasthöfe mit eigener Metzgerei und dementsprechend leckeren Gerichten.

    Schon lange geplant und jetzt umgesetzt. Dieser Rundweg hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Schöne schmale Pfade auf und ab mit fantastischer Aussicht in die Ferne. Jetzt ist alle so richtig grün und viele Blumen blühen am Weg. Im Herbst werden wir nochmals wiederkommen und hoffen dass der Wichtelbrunnen dann wieder geöffnet hat.
