    Mooie wandeling. Wij deden deze in omgekeerde richting zodat het bezoek aan de molen en het oude boothuis op het einde van onze wandeling aan bod kwam. We hadden prima de tijd om deze wandeling te doen terwijl de Traktorbus op ons wachtte. Een stuk van het pad was niet toegankelijk wegens ‘prive’ maar er was een ander parallel pad dat een prima alternatief was. Genoten van de wandeling! (En ook van het ijsje op het einde!)

    Fantastic route! Well waymarked. Lots of primitive tracks. Can be wet. Don't expect a dry trail in autumn or winter. I didn't succeed until my second attempt early July. First attempt was late September. Plenty of shelters and drinking water.

    Schöne Tour rund um Ribe. Eine Besichtigung des Doms lohnt sich. In den Dom kommt man umsonst. Besteigung des Turms inklusive Dommuseum kostet 20 Kronen.
