    Nach dem Rehnenmühlen Stausee geht es ein gutes Stück an der Straße entlang. Sie ist nicht viel befahren allerdings ist dieser Wegabschnitt nicht so toll. Kurz vor Striethof kommt ein Weg den man auf Grund von Privatbesitz nicht betreten darf. Wir haben uns dann bergauf quer durch den Wald gekämpft... Ansonsten: so toller mit Moos bewachsener Wald. Kaum Menschen... einfach herrlich!!!

    Eine sehr reizvolle und landschaftlich extrem abwechslungsreiche Tour - absolut empfehlenswert. Aber....es ist keine leichte Tour! Neben den Steigungen, die eine gute Grundkondition verlangen, sind vor allem die Abfahrten auf Schotter und in den Wäldern anspruchsvoll und für Ungeübte sehr anstrngend - technisch. Wir sind am Busbahnhof Abtsgmünd gestartet, es ist nicht empfehlenswert, die Richtung der Runde zu ändern!!
