    Wir, 12 lustige Wanderer aus dem Harz, verbrachten 3 wunderbare Tage im herrlichen Vogtland. In der gemütlichen Pension und Gaststätte Streuberg bei Theuma verwöhnte uns der Chef mit Köstlichkeiten aus der vogtländischen Küche. Die Chefin mit ihrer herzlichen Art ließ uns die Gastlichkeit und Gemütlichkeit des Vogtlands erleben. Wir danken dem Ehepaar Demmler für unvergessliche Tage in ihrer sächsischen Heimat und wünschen immer zufriedene Gäste. Herzliche Grüße im Namen der Harzer Wandergruppe Sabine Schulz

    Feine Strecke, die sich mit dem Gravel wirklich gut und abwechslungsreich fahren lässt. Schade nur, dass heute die Gaststätte am Streuberg geschlossen hatte.

    Einfache, aber durchaus abwechslungsreiche Radstrecke, die gerade im Sommer durch die Talsperre Pirk einen super Badestopp bietet. Von Falkenstein Hin und Zurück sehr schön als stressfreier Tagesausflug inklusive Essensmöglichkeiten unterwegs umsetzbar.
