    Die Schleife in Dierhagen Strand könnte man weglassen. Dadurch kommt es zu keinen Irritationen und versehentlichen Abkürzungen, zumal die Hinweispfeile auf der Straße nicht ausreichten, um der Schleife exakt zu folgen.

    Alles top, die Route benötigt ein Update. Bei Michaelsdorf ist diese Route gesperrt und ein Mehrweg muss gefahren werden. Man sollte Zingst nicht umfahren oder auslassen.

    Sehr schöne Tour. Bin erst durch den Wald und dann den Strand entlang gegangen. Der Jahreszeit entsprechend waren nicht sehr viele Leute unterwegs. Parkplatz kostet gerade 7,50€/Tagesticket. Stundenweise geht nicht. Nicht toll aber Touristen-Ort halt.

    Sehr schöner Strand und eindrucksvolle Natur am Darßer Ort. Der "Weg" verläuft allerdings sehr monoton immer geradeaus entlang des Strandes bzw. zurück durch den Wald.

    Ich habe die Tour heute von Wustrow aus gemacht. Allerdings ohne das Stück zwischen Prerow und Zingst. Sie ist wirklich sehr empfehlenswert. Das Stück zwischen Darßer Ort und Ahrenshoop schwächelt ein bisschen, aber es gibt ja keine Alternative. Das schönste Stück ist das zwischen Ahrenshoop und Wustrow oben an der Steilküste entlang.

    Sehr schöne Tour, die ich noch mit einem Abstecher zum Darßer Nothafen und zum Weststrand ergänzt habe. Die Fahrt durch den Wald ist zwar recht lang der schmale Weg parallel zum Reitweg aber unglaublich schön und trotzdem gut zu fahren.

    Diese Tour ist wunderschön! Der Weg durch den Wald ist allerdings nicht besonders abwechslungsreich, aber gehört eben zum Darßer Ort dazu! Leuchtturm, Weststrand, Dünenweg und Nordstrand sind aber in jedem Fall ein Muss und die 5 Sterne wert. Wer gut zu Fuß ist, kann auch noch den Weststrand Richtung Süden (und zurück) einbauen und so Wasser, Strand und fotogene Baumformationen genießen. Wir sind die Tour bei schönem Wetter im April gegangen - gute Reisezeit, es war nicht überlaufen, sondern sehr angenehm.

    Eine echte Highlight-Tour auf dem Fischland! Unsere Empfehlung: früh aufbrechen, bevor sich die Menschenmassen auf den Weg machen.

    Insgesamt eine superschöne Strecke. Bis Bodstedt zwar viel an Landstraßen entlang, aber der Rest ist super. Weiterer kulinarischer Tipp: der Lachsdöner am Start/Zielpunkt!
