    Die Tour hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Wir sind sie in 4 Tagen mit je ca. 60 km gefahren. Besonders die Strecke an der Unstrut hat uns gut gefallen. Wir sind allerdings meist den ausgeschilderten Fahrradwegen gefolgt, die teilweise von dieser Strecke abweichen. Nur die Strecke von Bad Kösen über die Rudelsburg nach Saaleck ist grauenhaft. Hier ist der Weg teilweise dermaßen schlecht, das selbst das Fahrrad schieben schwierig ist. Hier würde ich jedem empfehlen ab Bad Kösen auf die andere Seite der Saale zu wechseln und die L203 entlang zu fahren. Ansonsten ist die Tour uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Vielen Dank für das veröffentlichen.

    eine abwechslungsreiche Rundtour,landschaftliche sehr interessant und fast durchgehend sehr gut zu befahrende Wege. Nur zu empfehlen. Radwegweiser auf der Strecke weichen öfter von der Navi-Strecke ab, die sollte man befolgen.
