    Wer Ruhe und Einsamkeit Liebt ist bei dieser Runde besstens aufgehoben. Gut Beschildert Kleiner Tipp: vor dem Gemeindehaus in Freienberg steht die 1.Infotafel zum Severinsweg,also vom Parkplatz 50m zurückgehen.

    Leichter Rundweg mit vielen schönen Ausblicken. Durch die gute Beschilderung ist der Wegeverlauf problemlos zu finden. Etwas weniger Asphaltweg wäre noch schöner. Daher allerdings auch bei weniger gutem Wetter gut begehbar. Empfehlenswert!

    Schöne Tour mit tollem abwechslungsreichem Fernblick. Die Fotos zur Tour sind allerdings irreführend, da gleich das erste (Passaublick mit gelbem Rapsfeld) *nicht* von der Tour stammt -- wir haben die ganze Zeit auf diesen Blick gewartet, und er kam nicht. Diese Aussicht ergibt sich vom Wirsthaus Blaas etwas nördlich der eigentlichen Tour. Der Abstecher lohnt sich aber definitiv.

    sehr schöne und abwechslungsreiche Wanderung, bei gutem Wetter tolle Fernsicht in alle Richtungen, sehr gute Einkehrmöglichkeiten :-)..mein Tip: Starten in Haibach, bei Passau/Innstadt (an der SPK ) dann rechts herum die Runde machen ! Die Wanderzeit von 3 Std. ist gut bemessen :-)
