    Ich bin die Runde Anfang November gelaufen. An einigen Stellen war es schon ziemlich matschig, außerdem sollte man gute, wetterfeste Schuhe tragen, da ein Großteil der Strecke über Wiesenpfade verläuft. Ich bin die Rund im Uhrzeigersinn gelaufen und fand den ersten Abschnitt über die schmalen Pfade der Saale entlang und oberhalb der Saale am schönsten. Danach steigt man den Berg hoch in einen Wald, dem die Bäume fehlen. Hier wurde leider viel abgeholzt. Am Ende bin ich auf knapp über 10 Kilometer gekommen, was auch am Parkplatz auf dem Schild steht. Der Weg ist gut beschildert.

    Ein wunderschöne Tour gerade im Frühling, wenn der Blick vom Petersgrat noch nicht durch die Bäume verstellt ist.
