    Eine sehr schöne Rundwanderung, die zunächst mit einem saftigen Anstieg beginnt. Sobald man aber das "Felsenlabyrinth" erreicht hat, sind die letzten Höhenmeter des ersten Aufstieges entspannter zu laufen, da man aufgrund der Landschaft ohnehin regelmäßig stoppt. Die Felsenformationen hier sind äußerst eindrucksvoll. Anschließend erfolgt zunächst eine weitere Wegstrecke, bis man das Glaskreuz am Reiseck mit Weitblick gen Südosten erreicht. Zuvor hatte ich die Wegführung zur Dachsriegel-Berghütte nicht verstanden, da es hier nichts zu sehen gab. Auch die weiteren Aussichtspunkte Tannenriegel, Kreuzfelsen und Pfennigfelsen sind eigentlich sehr schön, durch die Vegetation sieht man aber teils nur bedingt in das Tal... Der kurze Schlenker zur Tschechischen Grenze mit dem Dreiwappen-Felsen ist allein historisch interessant. Nach dem Pfennigfelsen ist die weitere Wegstrecke leider überwiegend "langweilig". Am Berghof Gibacht besteht noch die Möglichkeit einer preisgünstigen Rastpause und dann geht es gen Burgstall als quasi Abschluss. Die Aussicht hier ist super schön und glücklicherweise durch die Bäume nicht versperrt. Insgesamt eine empfehlenswerte Tour, auch wenn diese mit 5 Stunden bei etwas über 14 km und 504 hm recht langwierig ist.
