    Wunderschöne Streckenführung, die immer wieder auch durch kleinere Orte führt. Ohne Navi wäre es manchmal schwierig geworden bzw. wir wären dem (weniger schönen) offiziellen Weg gefolgt, z.B. entlang von Bundesstraßen. Wir haben uns 10 Tage Zeit genommen, was mit Zelt und Gepäck auch gut machbar war. Herrliche Ausblicke, unbedingt zu empfehlen!
