    Schöner Gebirgsweg (hat mir besser gefallen als der sich nahtlos anschließende Hermannsweg). Gelaufen von Marsberg bis Externsteine im Juli 2021 (im Anschluss sofort weiter Hermannsweg bis Rheine). Tour: ultralight, 1x Übernachtung (Z.) am Trail, Anreise: DB

    Wir haben jetzt fünf oder sechs Touren in und um Willebadessen gemacht und diese hier ist definitiv unser "Liebling" von allen. Er vereint einige tolle Streckenabschnitte aus verschiedenen, von uns vorher begangenen, Wegen und hat uns in Summe am meisten begeistert. Wald, wenig Forstwege, Hochplateau, sehr viel Pfadanteil! Richtig schön!!! Danke an den Ersteller.

    Eine Tour die ich sehr empfehlen kann. Gut ausgebaute Wege die auch für ein Gravel geeignet sind. Sehr abwechslungsreiche Landschaften, tolle langgezogene Flußtäler und viele Informationen am Wegesrand.

    12 von 10 Punkten :) Wahnsinnig schöne und abwechslungsreiche Tour. Mal kleine, enge, naturbelassene Pfade, Mal Forst- mal Waldwege. Es hat uns richtig gut gefallen. Danke für die Route!

    Ich bin die Strecke, in 3 Etappen gewandert - ab Externsteine bis Marsberg. 1. Etappe von Externsteine bis Schwaney 2. von Schwaney bis Blankenrode 3. Von Blankenrode nach Marsberg. Kann ich nur empfehlen. Bis au die Steigung den Velmerstot hoch und den Abstieg von der Nadel ins Schwarzbachtal würde ich den gesamten Weg als mittel einstufen. Die Aussichten auf den Höhen sind unschlagbar.

    An der Tour hat uns gefallen die Weite auf den Hochflächen ("dank" abgeholzter Fichten), der Klippenpfad und die Stille insgesamt. Eher enttäuschend waren die Nadel (kein Fernblick im Sommer), das sog. "Felsenmeer" (vom Klippenpfad kann man einige Felsformationen wahrnehmen), und der insgesamt hohe Anteil an breiten Schotter-/Forststraßen sowie der Straßenabschnitt. Wohlwollende 4 Sterne.

    Sehr schöne Tour mit leichten Anstiegen zwischendurch, die aber mit jedem normalen Rad machbar ist. In Warburg sollte man unbedingt Zeit einplanen. Der Ort ist sehenswert.
