    Schöne Tour, auch bei grauem Wetter lohnenswert! Schmucke Dörfchen, Wald und Wiesenpfade, rauf und runter. Es wird nicht langweilig. Eine Hütte zur Rast, ein Labyrinth und eine wunderschöne Waldkapelle sind weitere Wegbegleiter.

    I enjoyed this walk. The route is varied, you hardly encounter any cars and the share of hiking trails is quite large. The route is not marked, so an attentive navigator is required. The way back to Wegeringhausen, for those who follow the route counterclockwise, is a bit more monotonous, but offers beautiful views. But then you also want the shortest way home.... the road is not difficult anywhere, but because of its length some endurance is needed.

    Auch ohne E machbar. Allerdings sollte man dann gut im Training sein. Der kilometerlange Anstieg macht sich bemerkbar. Aktuell gab es an einigen Stellen eine Schlammschlacht, da dort gerodet wurde. Trotzdem ist das eine schöne Runde, wenn man ein wenig Herausforderung ohne E-Antrieb sucht. Mit E, ist die Strecke ein Spaziergang.

    Teilweise leider sehr schmale Pfade aber allgemein eine wirklich schöne Tour Wir haben noch eine Aussichtsplattform mehr angesteuert, welche mit einem Umweg von 200m zu erreich war, dies kann ich allen nur Wärmstens empfehlen!

    Panoramablick. Eine sehr schöne Talsperre. An den warmen Tagen kann man wandern und es gibt für zwischendurch sehr viele badestellen. Die Wege sind ausgeschildert und Parkplätze runderherum vorhanden. Es lohnt sich ein Wandertag dort zu verbringen.

    Jahreszeitenbedingt ist der Abschnitt entlang der Talsperre ziemlich matschig. Der Teil rund um Lieberhausen wirkt dagegen lieblicher, obwohl er öfters über Asphalt führt. Absolutes Highlight der Tour ist die Bonte Kerke, die auf keinen Fall verpasst werden darf!
