    Nette Tour durch die Wälder der Vulkaneifel. Zwei mäßig anstrengende Anstiege, zu Beginn und dann zur Freudenkoppe/Nerother Kopf. Ein kleines Teilstück auf der Straße war aufgrund Motorradfahrer nicht sicher/angenehm. Burg und Burghaus auf der Freudenkoppe laden zur Rast ein.

    Prachtige route, slechts 1 km op de weg, voor de rest voortdurend in het bos met af en toe mooie vergezichten en enkele pittige klimmetjes. Een aanrader!

    Danke, ganz guter Weg, November-Matsch an den Schuhen ist OK. Einiges an Teerstrecken und Schotter, OK aber nicht optimal. Alles begehbar, ein paar querliegende Äste und Bäume kann man passieren, siehe Foto (bitte nicht mit Kinderwagen :-)), aber das ist gerade in den interessanteren Passagen, ab ca. km 6.3. Viel Spaß!
