    Ich bin die Tour letzten Mittwoch gelaufen. Die Hintour von Chorin nach Brodowin ist sehr schön und empfehlenswert, die Rücktour nach Chorin allerdings recht eintönig. Bis man Brodowin verlassen hat dauert es eine gefühlte Ewigkeit, der Weg durch den Wald, meist Buchenwald geht zum großen Teil schnurstracks geradeaus. Dazu kommt noch, dass es ein ausgebauter Radweg ist d.h., er ist asphaltiert. Ich bin dann über Theerofen gelaufen, der Parallelweg ist auch nicht schöner. In Brodowin lohnt sich ein Abstecher zum "Kleinen Rummelsberg", von dort hat man einen sehr schönen Rundblick. Einen Hinweis noch - das Klosterkaffee in Kloster Chorin kann man nur mit einer gültigen Eintrittskarte für das Kloster erreichen, ein großer Minuspunkt, in Brodowin kann ich den "Schwarzen Adler" direkt an der Kirche empfehlen. Die Tour bitte nicht im Sommer wandern, auf den Waldwegen wird man, wenn man stehenbleibt, regelrecht aufgefressen.

    Ich bin erst verschiedene Teile dieser Tour gefahren. Die ganze Strecke hört sich aber sehr gut 👍an um sie einmal nach zu fahren. Die Natur in der Uckermark und Barnim lädt natürlich zu solcher Radtour ein.

    Ich bin die Tour heute in leicht veränderter Route gelaufen. (Richtung + noch ein paar zusätzliche Schlenker). Vielen Dank für den Tipp!

    Das Kloster und die Umgebung sind wunderschön! Bin die kleine Tour etwas anders gelaufen. Das Kloster war nicht so überlaufen, konnte daher einige Aufnahmen machen.

    Sehr schöne Rundtour durch Wald und an mehreren Seen vorbei. Der Besuch des Hofladens eignet sich gut für eine Pause.
