    Heute diese Wanderung gemacht. Der Start ist nicht so toll, es geht an der Hauptstrasse, Industriegebiet und Autobahnausfahrt entlang, aber später entschädigt die schöne Landschaft für die anfänglichen Makel. Alternativ könnte man auch von Moutier zur Graitery hochsteigen, deutlich schönerer Start mit am Schluss spannender Leiterpassage.

    Ganz tolle Wanderung. Der Anfang ist sehr herausfordernd, da der Weg nicht ausgeschildert ist und die Orientierung schwierig. Aber es lohnt sich! Danach entspanntes Wandern mit durchqueren der eindrücklichen Wolfsschlucht.

    Diese Rundwanderung ist ganz fabelhaft. Die vielen Ausblicke und Tiefblicke sind toll. Und wenn man Glück hat, so wie wir, lassen sich Gemsenrudel aus nächster Nähe beobachten. Es ist durchaus Trittsicherheit erforderlich weil die Wege über Stock und Stein führen.
