    Sehr schöne Tour. Auf Beschilderung vor Ort achten! Zwischen Möckmühl und Roigheim verlässt diese Routenplanung den beschilderten Radweg im Tal und führt über einen Schotter-Waldweg. Am Ende eine kurze Schiebestrecke durch ein trockenes Bachbett. Dann ist man wieder zurück bei den Radschildern und auf Asphalt. Für mich sieht das aus wie schlampig geplant und nicht kontrolliert... oder täusche ich mich? Das beworbene Schloss Assumstadt ist in Privatbesitz und von Verbotsschildern umringt. Die Eigentümer möchten keine Gäste. Es hier zu bewerben ist nicht zielführend. Der See zwischen Seckach und Fischbach liegt wohl ziemlich weit abseits der Route. Fischbach hab ich auf der Landkarte gar nicht gefunden. Den See dann natürlich auch nicht. Und damit es schön endet... es war unsere schönste Radtour in diesem Sommer

    Das war die schönste Tour, die wir bisher nördlich von Tübingen gemacht haben - abwechlungsreiche Landschaft, gut zu befahrende Wege, sehr gut ausgeschildert. Es empfiehlt sich, die Tour im Uhrzeigersinn zu machen, da die Steigungen in Gegenrichtung teilweise sehr steil sind. Zur Einkehr im Schefflenztal: In Billigheim (etwa halbe Strecke im Tal) kann man im "Waffelfabrikle" gut essen - eine schöne Auswahl an süßen und herzhaften Waffeln. Guter Startpunkt ist Züttlingen, weil man da am Sportplatz gut parken kann.

    Tolle Tour einer der schönsten welche wir dieses Jahr schon gefahren sind. Wir sind die Tour in umgekehrter Richtung gefahren da im Schefflenztal die Einkehr Möglichkeiten doch begrenzt sind und wir am Nachmittag nicht auf Kaffee und Kuchen verzichten wollten :-)
