    Mir gefällt die Strecke sehr. Besonders hat mir der Abschnitt durch den Wald gefallen, aber dort muss man aufpassen, dass man den richtigen Weg nimmt und nicht falsch abbiegt, so wie es mir passiert ist :) Die Strecke ist aufgrund der Steigungen an manchen Stellen recht anspruchsvoll, wie ich finde. Ein schwieriger Abschnitt ist z.B. der Weg zum Mausoleum, der so ca. 10% Steigung hat und ca. 300 Meter lang ist. Da gibt es aber noch andere Abschnitte, die recht steil sind. An manchen Stellen könnte es matchig sein, deswegen wäre es eventuell vorteilhaft, keine Schuhe zu tragen, die kaum Grip haben. Ich werde die auf jedenfall wieder laufen. Die Strecke könnte einer meiner Favoriten werden. Vielen Dank für das teilen.
