    Schöner und abwechslungsreicher Weg entlang der Reuss. Auf dem Rückweg hatte es dann nicht mehr viele Bänkli. Vor der Brücke musste man dem Hauptweg und dann der Strasse entlang gehen, der Weg über die Wiese war privat und abgezäunt.

    Der Weg ist schön und flach, grösstenteils im Schatten der Auenwälder. Die Beschilderung ist allerdings ganz schlecht, bzw. teilweise gar nicht vorhanden. Unbedingt gut vorbereiten und eine ausgedruckte Karte mitnehmen! Teilweise muss der Weg sogar etwas gesucht werden, vor allem im Abschnitt zwischen dem Brugger Militärgelände und der Brücke bei Vogelsang.

    Tolle Wasserlandschaft, auch die Wasserbüffel beim Militärgelände in Brugg haben wir angetroffen. Zu erwähnen wäre vielleicht, dass der Anstieg nach Lauffohr hoch zum Bruggerberg teilweise steil und eng ist. Dafür wurden wir mit einer tollen Aussicht bis über Baden hinaus belohnt.

    Nice path along the river, several places for BBQ along the way. Might not be the best for elderly people, as the path is small and a bit windy, with stones and roots along the way. Great for young children. We only did a part of the route.

    Sehr schöne Wanderung durch lianenbewachsene Auenwälder und lauschige Flussinseln. Geheimtipp: Beim Limmatspitz nicht dem vorgesehenen Weg, sondern dem Trampelpfad folgen.

    Extrem tolle Wanderung. Sehr vielseitig. Fluss, Wald, aber auch der Aufstieg mit der fantastischen Aussicht. Ich fand es nicht super leicht. Also den Berg hoch muss man schon ein bisschen fit sein wenigstens und aufpassen, wo man hin tritt. Aber werde ich sicher nochmal machen!

    Der steilste Aufstieg erfolgt vom Bahnhof Wildegg zum Schloss. Bald taucht man in den Wald ein und verlässt denselben erst wieder bevor man das grosse Feld vor der Habsburg überquert. Im Schlossrestaurant kann man eine Pause einlegen bevor man den ca. 50 minütigen Weg nach Brugg unter die Füsse nimmt.
