    Wunderschöne, aber auch recht fordernde Runde. Die Knüppelsteige und die kleinen Klettereien über die Felsen sollte man nicht unterschätzen. Alles in allem aber eine sehr schöne Tour die wir heute bei 31 Grad gemacht haben 🥵

    Bin heute den Weg mit Kindern gewandert. Wir haben 3,5 h gebraucht. Von Tännesberg bis Wildstein geht alles meist auf Forstwegen durch den Wald. Wunderschön. Wenig Steigung. Ab Wildstein gibt es ab und an eine Strecke über die Teerstraße. Ca. 1 - 2 km. Alles in allem war wirklich schön und nicht sehr anstrengend.

    Die fünfte Goldsteigetappe von Leuchtenberg nach Tännesberg reiht sich nahtlos ein in die Ansprüche an einen Prädikatswanderweg und bietet all das, was man von einer tollen Route erwartet. Ein idyllisches, enges und überaus einsames Bachtal mit felsbewehrten Berghängen, eine trutzige Burganlage und ein Stausee sorgen für ein unvergessliches Wandererlebnis. Kontitionell sollte man allerdings auf der Höhe sein, sind doch zwei stramme, lang anhaltende Anstiege Bestandteil der Streckenführung. Panoramablicke und Fernsichten gibt es auf diesem Teilabschnitt in Hülle und Fülle. Besonders der Schlossberg hoch über dem Zielort Tännesberg setzt ganz zum Schluss letzte Glanzpunkte auf dieser tollen Goldsteigetappe. Hier geht es zum bebilderten Wanderbericht der Wehrer Watzmänner: http://www.die-wehrer-watzmaenner.de/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=274:goldsteig-5-etappe-leuchtenberg-taennesberg&catid=63:oberpfaelzer&Itemid=225
