    Tour in Teilen gewandert - immer in Kombination mit anderen Tagestouren (Hoherodskopf, Herbstein, Ulrichstein). Von Laubach bis Gedern bin ich komplett alles gewandert Sehr schön, jedoch kann man immer mal wieder auf schönere Wege ausweichen - das heißt, den Weg noch optimieren.

    Vielen Dank für das Anlegen dieser kleinen Runde hier in OA!! Wir haben schon einige Wanderungen aus den drei Büchern der beiden Autoren ausprobiert. Diese hier hat uns an vielen Stellen total positiv überrascht und von Anfang bis Ende unheimlich gut gefallen. Ein Genuss!!

    Eine sehr nette Tour vor allem auf Feld- und Waldwegen mit ein paar Ausblicken. Nach Röthges geht es auf Asphalt weiter, aber immer noch gut zu gehen. Habe ziemlich genau 2,5 Stunden gebraucht.
