    Ein herrlicher Abschnitt im Tal der Donau. Mussten allerdings die Tour verlängern, da der Weg vom Jägerhaus über die Donau wegen Hochwasser nicht möglich war. Der nördliche Teil ist auf perfekten Wanderwegen. Verlaufen kann man sich hier übrigens nicht: hervorragende Wegweiser.

    Wie fast alle Wanderungen im Donautal ist auch diese landschaftlich sehr schön. Gerade auch im Herbst bezaubernd durch die bunten Laubwälder. Die Tour hat nur zu Beginn eine merkliche Steigung, ansonsten bequem zu laufen. Das Highlight der Tour ist die Aussicht vom Knopfmacherfelsen. Was nicht so schön ist, dass man ab dem Jägerhaus auf dem Donautalradweg läuft, zwar landschaftlich immer noch wunderschön aber auf Grund der vielen Radfahrer nicht sehr angenehm.

    Die Tour ist wohl das Schönste was ich bisher mit dem Fahrrad gemacht habe. Was die Natur hier bietet ist vom Feinsten, saftige Blumenwiesen umrahmt von steilen Felswänden und dazwischen die sich schlängelnde Donau. Empfehlenswert.

    Eine weitere sehr schöne Tour in dieser tollen Wandergegend! Die Anstiege sind nicht zu steil, die Ausblicke fantastisch! Wer kann, übernachtet im Jägerhaus, wunderbar gelegen und sehr nette Besitzer mit tollem Essen (eigene Zeburinder).

    Wunderbare Tour. Die Wege sind sehr abwechslungsreich und bieten immer wieder eine grandiose Aussicht. Es gab einige andere Wanderer, jedoch war es nie überlaufen. Sehr empfehlenswert. Eine Einkehr im Berghaus am Knopfmacherfelsen kann ich ebenso empfehlen.

    Fordernde Tour mit einigen steileren Ab- und Aufstiegen, u.a. kurz vor Tourende. Dafür wird man mit tollen Ausblicken belohnt. Die Strecke verläuft überwiegend auf schmalen Wegen und im Wald. Auf die Schilder muss man wirklich achten wie ein Luchs, wir haben uns dreimal verfranzt. Einmal waren wir selber schuld, weil wir einen schmalen abzweigenden Pfad übersehen haben. An einer ähnlichen Stelle lagen allerdings so viele frisch gefällte Stämme auf dem Weg, dass dieser fast versteckt war. Die Schilder wurden in unsere Laufrichtung mitsamt der Bäume gefällt. Dann noch ein verdrehtes Schild an einem Wegweiser und so hatten wir fast 18 km und einige Höhenmeter mehr auf der Uhr. Auch wenn die Donauüberquerung auf den Trittsteinen toll war, gefiel uns die Donauwellen Eichfelsenpanorama Runde besser.
