    Wunderschöne, abwechslungsreiche Tour, die wirklich oft am Wasser entlang führt. Schöne Aussichtspunkte, viele Kapellen und natürlich die Abtei Marienstatt. Den Weg geht man gerne mehr als einmal.

    Schöne Passagen an den Bächen längs. Die wenigen Aufstiege sind aber eher unnötig, machen sie doch nur Höhenmeter ohne dann ‚oben‘ was zu bieten (Aussicht o.ä.). Und „schwer“ ist der Weg nun wirklich nicht … Danke aber für die Ausarbeitung
