    Schöne kurzweilige Tour. Anstieg ist am Anfang anstrengend, aber dann vorwiegend ebene Strecke. Die Kirche ist aktuell geschlossen und die Gügel-Gaststätte leider dauerhaft geschlossen. Die Gaststätte an der Giechburg hat Montag und Dienstag Ruhetag und ansonsten durchgehend warme Küche bis 17:30 Uhr.

    Neben der tollen Klettereinlage am Kemitzenstein hat uns besonders die zweite Hälfte ab dem Weinhügel gefallen. Und das Finale am Hohlen Stein war wirklich ein standesgemäßer Abschluss. Hat Spaß gemacht!

    Tolle Wanderung die sich allerdings nach dem Kemitzenstein Richtung Ködelhof etwas zieht. Der Hohle Stein und der Kemitzenstein sind eine Augenweide für jeden Kletterer.

    Wir sind die Tour am 5. Mai bei wundervollem Frühlingswetter in umgekehrter Richtung von Schwabthal aus gelaufen. Sie ist mit "Keltenweg H" auch recht gut ausgeschildert, mit Navi geht's natürlich noch einfacher. Noch ein Tipp: bei km 6,0 sollte man einen kleinen Abstecher (ca. 20 m abseits vom Weg) machen und den schönen Monolithen (s. Foto) anschauen. Auch ein Abstecher zum Kletterfelsen am Kemitzenstein (bei km 4,5) ist lohnenswert.

    Sehr abwechslungsreiche Tour auf den Höhen der fränkischen Alb und durch das romantische Tiefental. Der Weg über den Weinhügel bei Schabtal mit einem großartigen Ausblick auf das Obermaintal bildete den abschließenden Höhepunkt der Tour. Ein gelungener Vorfrühlingstag bei strahlendem Sonnenschein.
