    Tolle Tour, die einen an manchen Stellen doch aus den Reserven lockt. Ohne diese .gpx Datei ist man aber an manchen Stellen echt aufgeschmissen, weil die Beschilderung (gelber Ring auf weißem Grund / oft auch einfach nur ein weißer Grund) an manchen Stellen wirklich zu wünschen übrig lässt. Wenn man die Tour aber einmal gefahren ist, kennt man die verzwickten Abzweigungen. Großer Vorteil der Runde: wenn man wirklich nicht mehr weiter kann bzw. die Zeit knapp wird, kann man die Tour problemlos abbrechen. Abschließend kann ich sagen: Empfehlenswerte Tour um Amberg. Gruß an Stephan der mich einen Teil seiner eigenen Route begleitet hat ;)

    Super abwechslungsreiche Tour! Konditionell ansprechend zum Gehen aber einfach. Die 17h sind gut gewählt oder man macht aus den 24h gleich eine 100km Strecke daraus.

    Gute Bedingungen am 26. April 2015. Im Wald ist größtenteils alles trocken. Im Mühltal liegen noch zwei Bäume quer, Stelle ist aber gut und rechtzeitig zu sehen und ohne Probleme zu umfahren.
