    Schöne Nachmittagsrunde mit tollen Aussichten, es gibt viele Rastmöglichkeiten mit Bänken, aber wenig Schatten. Einkehren kann man mit schöner Aussicht am Hofgut Wißberg. Es gibt viele Weinbergswege, ein paar Pfade und stellenweise Schotterwege. Und im Sommer gibt's Sonntags an der Kreuzkapelle sogar einen Weinausschank.

    Sehr schöne Aussichtsreiche Tour mit reichlich Sitzgelegenheiten und auch Liegebänken zum Fern schauen. Einfache Halbwanderschuhe genügen um den Weg zu bestreiten.

    Tolle aussichtsreiche Streckentour durch die typische rheinhessische Landschaft. Weite Fernblicke. Ideal für Frühjahr oder Herbst oder kühle Sommertage da wenig Schatten. Zahlreiche Rastplätze, hervorzuheben ist das Zotzenheimer Horn. Lange Tour, aber nicht überbordend schwer.

    Eine sehr schöne Tour. Habe diese etwas gekürzt. Ich kann aber diese Tour absolut weiterempfehlen. Wir empfanden diese Tour aber nicht als schwer. Eher eine moderate, sehr aussichtsreiche Tour.

    Am Anfang geht es immer hoch und runter. Belohnt wird man von tollen Ausblicken. Am Golfplatz obacht vor tieffliegenden Golfbällen ( das war jetzt nicht ernst gemeint ). Die letzte Hälfte des Weges ist einfach zu laufen. Im Sommer kann es sehr heiß sein, da nur wenig Schattenplätze vorhanden sind. Zum Ausruhen viele Bänke entlang des Weges.
