    Bin die Tour von Tharandt bis Lehnmühlentalsperre gefahren. Landschaftlich sehr schön, sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Echt super. Beim Wegabschnitt von Tharandt nach Edle Krone sollte man sich überlegen ob man die Straße, den Weg am Fluss oder einen kleinen Umweg über den Meilerplatz fahren möchte. Der Weg am Fluss ist sehr eng mit hohen Brennnesseln, dafür sieht man mit etwas Glück Eisvögel im Fluss. An der Lehnmühlentalsperre war an dem Tag leider der Waldweg wegen Baumarbeiten gesperrt. Ich bin deshalb von dort kurz dem Weg Richtung Rehefeld gefolgt und dann auf den Wanderweg nach Dippoldiswalde abgebogen für die Rückfahrt.

    Eine sehr schöne Wandertour auf befestigten Wegen. Am Wochenende bei schönem Wetter ist einiges los, aber man findet immer noch ein ruhiges Plätzchen am See zum rasten. Viel Natur und Erholung sind garantiert.

    A nice and very diverse route. Through small villages, open fields and forest lands. We did the hike in early september in beautiful weather. Only thing is: Do bring your own lunch since there a very limited options in the villages you pass.

    Es war eine sehr schöne Tour, abwechslungsreich, teilweise etwas anstrengend. Die Angabe von 3,5 Stunden war allerdings sehr optimistisch angesetzt. Ich habe 6 Stunden gebraucht bei einer kurzen Pause von 10 Minuten. Auch die Orientierung war teilweise schwierig, da nicht so gut beschildert ist. Ohne Google Maps wäre ich nicht am Ziel angekommen.

    Gut geplante Rundtour ,das sportliche Highlight ist ohne Zweifel,wie vom Autor beschrieben, der Anstieg nach Großopitz . Ob der noch "leicht" ist muss jeder mit sich ausmachen...
