    Zware trail. Erg uitdagend en soms slecht begaanbaar. Een brug over het water was verdwenen dus moest een heel stuk terug en een aangepaste route vinden. De route is sowieso niet te rijden zonder gpx route. Bewegwijzering nauwelijks aangegeven. Goede conditie is echt wel belangrijk.

    Landschaftlich sehr schöne Tour, mit dem ein oder anderen einfachen Singletrail. Zwischendurch lagen ein paar Bäume quer und eine Brücke hat gefehlt. Wegen der aktuell niedrigen Pegel kommt man aber auch so gut durch den Bach durch.

    Wir haben am 22.6.22 die Eifel Tour Marienburg gemacht und sind sehr begeistert. Startpunkt in Mayen, Vormittags noch auf leeren Straßen an der Mosel vorbei. Die Moselschleife haben wir geschlabbert, die kennen wir schon. Am Ring eine zusätzliche Pause gemacht, den Rennfahren zugeschaut. GvLG die Globetrottel

    Sind am Tunneleingang in Eller gestartet und geendet. Schöne Runde durch ein Tal mit Natur pur. Auch auf der Höhe schön. Aufstieg knackig, aber schaffbar.

    Mitte der Tour fehlten ein paar Ruhenbänke - ansonsten eine wunderbare gepflegte, gut beschilderte Rundtour. Herrliche Aussichten. Ein Lob den Verantwortlichen!
