    Anspruchsvolle und tolle Rundtour. Kurz vor Emersacker kann man sogar eine von den 7 Kapellen, nämlich die Huber-Kapelle besuchen. Ca. 40 km/560 Hm

    Schöne gemütliche Fahrradtour. Größtenteils durch Ortschaften bzw. an Straßen auf befestigten Wegen entlang. Ein kurzes Stück führt durch den Wald und vereinzelt gibt es Feldwege.

    Klasse Tour! Mit Über 30 Anstiegen auf Dauer aber auch knackig! Einige Super Trails, die aber ein gewisses Fahrkönnen erfordern. Man fährt oft mutterseelen allein durch die schönen nördlichen Westlichen Wälder. Würde die angegeben Höhenmeter aber auf 630 hm korrigieren.
