    Abwechslungsreiche Rundtour auf einfach zu begehenden Wegen. Ich empfehle die Tour an Hanauer Weiher zu beginnen. Dann geht es nicht gleich mit einer Steilpassage los und man hat nach wenigen Minuten das erste Ziel nach dem Start am See mit der Burg Waldeck schön vor Augen.

    Wir sind die Tour an einem sonnigen Herbsttag gelaufen und finden sie wunderschön! Sie ist sehr abwechslungsreich und die kulturhistorischen Highlights am Wegesrand sind allesamt sehr sehenswert! (Achtung, Fleckenstein ist mit Falkenstein verwechselt worden)

    Wunderschöne Wanderung auf angenehmen Wegen durch eine faszinierende Waldlandschaft. Höhepunkt ist die Ruine Waldeck, eine Felsenburg, die auf einem max. 7 Meter breiten Fels steht. Schöne Ausblicke von dort. Auch die Erbsenfelsen mit dem Bogen und eine Bunker der Maginotlinie sowie ein historischer Grenzstein liegen auf der Strecke. Die Erbsenfelsen sind normalerweise von Januar bis August für Wanderer gesperrt, weil Kolkraben und Wanderfalken dort brüten. Man kann den Erbsenfelsbogen aber auch vom Wanderweg aus bewundern. Sehr empfehlenswert!
