    Sehr schöne Tour mit Natur und Tieren. Man sollte allerdings darauf achten, ob es in den Tagen zuvor geregnet hat, weil die Tour dann sehr matschig ist. Zudem sollte man sie aufgrund der engen Wege nicht mit einem Kinderwagen oder Buggy machen

    Schöne abwechslungsreiche Tour, zwischen Ortschaften viel Natur. Von Wuppertal aus kommend parken wir immer auf dem Pendlerparkplatz Vierwinden an der Autobahnabfahrt Kapellen und steigen ein paar hundert Meter weiter westlich in die Route ein (Buscherhofstraße).

    Vielen Dank für die tolle Tour. Bin sie als Heimweg von der Arbeit zwischen Köln und Bedburdyck gefahren und war richtig verblüfft, wie schnell es in Köln grün und ruhig wurde. Bis auf einzelne Sumpflöcher im Wald aufgrund starkes Regens in letzter Zeit, war der Untergrund auch im Wald sehr gut zu fahren. Ein reiner Wiesenabschnitt lässt sich auf Wegen umfahren. Danke, dass Sie ich so viel Arbeit gemacht haben. Ein absoluter Genuss!! Alles Gute...

    Wunderschöne Tour, selbst heute am Pfingstmontag nicht zu überlaufen. Lange Linien erleichtern die Navigation, trotzdem sehr abwechslungsreich und einfach schön. Für jeden Freizeitradler zu empfehlen, hoher Genuss- und Erholungsfaktor!
