    Ab Fähre Prüfening evtl. ein Stück weit auf der parallel zum holprigen Radweg verlaufenden Straße fahren. Die ist zwar recht schmal aber es ist nur wenig Verkehr.

    schöne einsame Tour. Da wir von Matting aus gegangen sind, haben wir uns denn Abstecher nach Obernberg gespart, und damit einige Höhenmeter, und sind auf dem Jura stetig oben weiter gegangen.

    Die Tour hatte wir im 1.-4. Juli 2021 geradelt. Gestartet sind wir in Lauf an der Pegnitz. Die ersten zwei Tage ging es an der Pegnitz, Vils, Naab entlang: sehr idyllisch, sehr schöne Natur und kleine Ortschaften und haben fast niemanden getroffen - Altmühl belebter - Ludwig-Main-Donaukanal sehr schön, aber nach endlosen km mit nur Wäldern und Fluss sehr eintönig - kaum landschaftliche Abwechslung. Sehr zu empfehlen :) - Aber die Höhenmeter sind wohl auf nur eine Etappe zu sehen: insgesamt waren es über 2.000 hm !!

    Wir sind am Wochenende die Tour gegangen. Und wir vier Mädls (+2 Hunde) waren sehr begeistert. Naturbelassen trifft es sehr gut. Aber richtig schön. Ohne Navi hätten wir die Tour wahrscheinlich nicht gefunden, aber Outdooractive hilft da ja super 👍 Bilder folgen noch. Auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.

    Die Landschaft ist sehr schön, die zweite Hälfte ist aber auf einem geradlinigen Weg zurück. Uns sind Pfade und Wanderwege lieber.

    Ein toller Weg. Wir sind gestartet in Essing. Startpunkt Kirchplatz. Bis Nürnberg entlang am Ludwig-Main-Donau Kanal gute Wege fester Kies. 4 Etappen Essing-Neumarkt Unterkunft Kloster St. Josef gute Radlerunterkunft. Neumarkt-Hersbruck und Hersbruck-Schmidmühlen ein Teil dieses dritten Abschnittes ist etwas Kondition erforderlich einige Steigungen danach kommen aber schöne Bahntrassenwege. Rundum toller Weg. In Essing tolle Einkehr-und Übernachtungsmöglichkeit der Felsenwastlwirt.

    Sehr schöne Radltour (ca. 2-3 Stunden) im Grenzgebiet Böhmerwald. Teilweise auf Fernradweg 13 und Radweg ‚Furth - Rittsteig‘. Einsam und romantisch. Ich habe an einem Sonntag 10 (fahrende) Autos gezählt. Super Tour. Bis auf drei kurze Schotterweg-Abschnitte durchweg tolle Wegelchen und Strässchen...
