    Die Asphaltstraße nach Herbsleben und der Abschnitt danach waren sehr eintönig, weil es fast nur geradeaus ging. Der Abschnitt durch das Unstruttal bei nagelstädt bis Großvargula war sehr schön, obwohl es geregnet hatte und die Naturwege teils schlammig waren.

    Die Tour hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir sind sie in 4 Tagen mit je ca. 60 km gefahren. Besonders die Strecke an der Unstrut hat uns gut gefallen. Wir sind allerdings meist den ausgeschilderten Fahrradwegen gefolgt, die teilweise von dieser Strecke abweichen. Nur die Strecke von Bad Kösen über die Rudelsburg nach Saaleck ist grauenhaft. Hier ist der Weg teilweise dermaßen schlecht, das selbst das Fahrrad schieben schwierig ist. Hier würde ich jedem empfehlen ab Bad Kösen auf die andere Seite der Saale zu wechseln und die L203 entlang zu fahren. Ansonsten ist die Tour uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Vielen Dank für das veröffentlichen.

    eine abwechslungsreiche Rundtour,landschaftliche sehr interessant und fast durchgehend sehr gut zu befahrende Wege. Nur zu empfehlen. Radwegweiser auf der Strecke weichen öfter von der Navi-Strecke ab, die sollte man befolgen.

    Wir sind die Tour 2017 (direkt nach dem Hochwasser) gefahren. Von Leinefelde bis Naumburg. Schöne Tour, von der einen oder anderen Überflutung mal abgesehen. Immer wieder Sehenswertes am Wegesrand. Unbedingt zu empfehlen!
