    Zuerst einmal ein Kompliment: In Schöneck werden die Loipen hervorragend präpariert - auch an Wochentagen. Zudem werden schwere Maschinen (Ratrac) verwendet, das hat den Vorteil, dass selbst leichter Pulverschnee so komprimiert wird, dass man beim Skaten nicht einsinkt. Die verdichtete Loipe hält zudem auch kurze Warmphasen durch, selbst wenn anderswo auf gleicher Höhe die Loipe schon weggeschmolzen ist, bleibt eine firnige Unterlage. Ferner: Der Track ist genau, die Beschilderung im Gelände ist auch hervorragend. Und der Öffnungszustand wird auch zuverlässig angepasst. Danke! Diese Runde ist toll in der Länge. EInziger Wehrmutstropfen, viel Abwecfhslung gibt es nicht. Die Straßen sind schachbrettartig, der Wald eine Monokultur - nur die Kottenheide bietet kleine Abwechslung.

    Schöne, breite Loipe. In diesem Wald wo die Wege schachbrettartig angelegt sind ist diese Runde erfrischend kurvenreich - aktuell bei knapper Schneelage bestmöglichst präpariert

    Schöne, abwechslungsreiche Runde. Einzig bei der Abfahrt nach Klingenthal wäre eine weniger stark befahrene Straße schöner gewesen. :)

    Der Rodelhang ist vom Skibetrieb getrennt, nutzt aber gegen Bezahlung den Zauberteppich. Der Hang selbst ist nicht besonders steil und man kann gut auch kleinere Kinder alleine rodeln lassen.

    Eine wunderschöne Idee und nette Leute um diese Strecke zu erhalten die wirklich sehenswert ist von Adorf bis zwotenthal 95 % durch den Wald in einem entschleunigen Tempo. Der Verein gibt sich sehr große Mühe, um diese schöne Museumsbahn zu erhalten. Sehr empfehlenswert für einen schönen Ausflug.
