    Schöne, ruhige Tour, abseits von jeglichem Verkehr. Jederzeit auch gut mit einem Trekkingbike machbar. Wir sind in Heubsch eingestiegen, haben die erste Pause am Magnus-Turm, die zweite in Schederndorf und die letzte auf dem Görauer Anger gemacht. Ideal, weil man dann mit "vollem Bauch" nur noch ein paar Kilometer runterrollen muss.
