    Sehr schöne, familienfreundliche Radtour! Tipp: Wer mit Kindern fährt sollte die Tour in Niederbrechen beginnen. Dann hat man die Steigung auf dem Hinweg Richtung Idstein. Dort lohnt ein Abstecher in die Altstadt. Gut gestärkt geht's dann noch einen kurzen Anstieg hoch und dann nur noch runter bzw. eben bis zum Ausgangspunkt.

    Eine angenehme Tour die am besten gegen den Uhrzeigersinn zu laufen ist. Einige schöne Ausblicke . Eine gute Alternativezu den überlaufeden Wanderrouten. Es ist wirklich wenig los auf der Tour, trotz Vatertag und mega Wetter.

    Eine schöne Tour mit teils sehr einsamen Pfaden durch den Wald. Das Tal des Eisenbachs ist sehr idyllisch und im letzten Abschnitt hat man einen schönen Panormablick in die Ebene bei Bad Camberg.
