    Wunderschöne Rundtour. Oben auf der Burg waren wir schon öfter, aber eine Runde sind wir dort noch nicht gegangen. Wir gehen auch zwischendurch bewußt langsamer um die Landschaft zu genießen. Jetzt im August gab es auch frisches Obst direkt vom Baum. Sehr lecker. Es hat riesigen Spaß gemacht und zum Ende saßen wir abends noch an der Naab auf ein Bier 🍺.

    Schöne gemütliche Rundtour mit nur geringen Anstiegen, genau das richtige wenn man einen Tag zuvor etwas aktiver unterwegs war. Wir haben die Strecke genauso gemacht wie angegeben, ausser im ersten Drittel, da zwei Wege zugewachsen waren. Ausweichmöglichkeiten gibt es genug, so daß wir zügig weiterkamen. Schöne Wanderung für einen doch recht warmen Tag. Hat Spaß gemacht.

    Die Tour hatte wir im 1.-4. Juli 2021 geradelt. Gestartet sind wir in Lauf an der Pegnitz. Die ersten zwei Tage ging es an der Pegnitz, Vils, Naab entlang: sehr idyllisch, sehr schöne Natur und kleine Ortschaften und haben fast niemanden getroffen - Altmühl belebter - Ludwig-Main-Donaukanal sehr schön, aber nach endlosen km mit nur Wäldern und Fluss sehr eintönig - kaum landschaftliche Abwechslung. Sehr zu empfehlen :) - Aber die Höhenmeter sind wohl auf nur eine Etappe zu sehen: insgesamt waren es über 2.000 hm !!

    Ein toller Weg. Wir sind gestartet in Essing. Startpunkt Kirchplatz. Bis Nürnberg entlang am Ludwig-Main-Donau Kanal gute Wege fester Kies. 4 Etappen Essing-Neumarkt Unterkunft Kloster St. Josef gute Radlerunterkunft. Neumarkt-Hersbruck und Hersbruck-Schmidmühlen ein Teil dieses dritten Abschnittes ist etwas Kondition erforderlich einige Steigungen danach kommen aber schöne Bahntrassenwege. Rundum toller Weg. In Essing tolle Einkehr-und Übernachtungsmöglichkeit der Felsenwastlwirt.
