    Landschaftlich tolle Runde wobei das Wetter natürlich eine große Rolle spielt. Zwei Infos zur Tour: Die letzten ca. 10 km im Engtal sind mautpflichtig, derzeit 5 Euro pro Motorrad, lohnt aber auf jeden Fall. Die Strecke ab Wallgau bis Vorderriss ist ebenfalls mautpflichtig mit derzeit 6 Euro pro Motorrad. Außerdem ist die Kesselbergstrasse zwischen Kochel am See in Richtung Walchensee täglich zwischen 15.00 und 22.00 Uhr für Motorräder gesperrt. In der Gegenrichtung gibt es keine Beschränkung. Daher würde ich die Tour in Gegenrichtung fahren, um nicht in Zeitnot zu geraten. Gefahren am 19.6.2026 mit der Vespa in Gegenrichtung.

    Landschaftlich schöne, lange Wanderung. Die Stationen mit den kleinen Gruselgeschichten finde ich witzig, wenn auch nicht immer passend. Die Mühle (Station 2) - ein renoviertes Wohnhaus - liegt keineswegs einsam, sondern neben einem stattlichen Bauernhaus. Die Unterführung (Station 3) ist eine hässliche Betonunterführung, bei der wenig märchenhafte Gedanken aufkommen, und der finstere Weg (Station 5) ist ein aufgelassener, nicht mehr gepflegter Weg, der nicht immer leicht zu verfolgen ist. Für Kinder finde ich die Wanderung ungeeignet, 6 Stationen auf ca. 17 km sind einfach zu wenig, und der Straßenhatscher nach Reichersbeuern zieht sich etwas. Sehenswert finde ich Greiling, hier empfiehlt sich der Weg über die Kirche, um an den alten, sehr gut erhaltenen Bauernhäusern vorbeizukommen. Die gotische Kirche von Ellbach ist malerisch schön ausgestaltet. Die meisten der bisherigen Bewertungen wurden innerhalb einer Woche abgegeben. Scheint ja viel los gewesen zu sein auf den Wegen im Juni 2022.

    Ich kann diese Tour nur empfehlen, sie war eine meiner Schönsten im Münchner Umland dieses Jahr. Auch an heißen Sommertagen bestens geeignet.

    Wunderschöne Tour, vor allem wenn - wie am 01.10.2021- das Wetter auch noch passt. Die Abschnitte mit den Wurzeltrails nach der Aueralm habens schon ein wenig in sich (was aber auch dazugehört). Lohnend ist auch ein Abstecher auf den Fockenstein.

    Sehr schöne Runde, zumeist auf grobem Schotter. Wenn es einige Tage geregnet hat, bleibt man bei der Seeumrundung allerdings leicht im Schlamm stecken und muss durch Wasser fahren. Die Höhenmeter belaufen sich auf 380 insgesamt.
