    Bei trockenem Wetter ist es mit dem E-Mountainbike eine sehr schöne abwechslungsreiche Tour bei mittler Anstrengung, vorausgesetzt das Fahrkönnen liegt im mittleren Bereich. Längere Abschnitte sind gut befahrbare, meist wurzelfreie, schmale Pfade, die durch Waldabschnitte entlang und durch Weinberge führen.

    Wir genossen den Rundweg bei tollem Frühlingswetter. Es bieten sich immer wieder schöne Ausblicke auf Wiernsheim. Unterwegs sind viele Vögel zu sehen und zu hören - auch Specht und Eichelhäher. Die Wege sind gut begehbar.

    Normalerweise laufen wir immer mit Beginn in Aurich durchs Tal, sehr schön von der anderen Richtung zu kommen, im Sommer kann die lange Wiesenstrecke heiß werden, hier ist wenig Schatten

    Schöner Rundweg, teils auf engem Pfad mit Wurzeln. Die Beschilderung ist sehr gut. Mehrere Bänke laden unterwegs zum Verweilen ein.

    Außer dem Tal runter bis zum Paulinensee landschaftlich nicht sehr reizvoll, ab und zu unterwegs schöne Aussichten. Viele Asphaltwege.

    Gestartet am Klärwerk in Grossglattbach hat diese angenehm zu laufende Tour fast den Charakter eines ausgedehnten Spazierganges. Selbst bei nassem Wetter wie im Winter ist dieser Rundweg relativ gut zu laufen.

    Landschaftlich sehr schöner Rundweg, größtenteils führt dieser durch Wiesen und Felder. Man kommt an einer Krugstätte mit Holzbank vorbei und kann die Natur im Wandel der Jahreszeiten genießen.

    Zuerst geht es ein Stück durch den Wald. Danach führt der Weg über die Felder. Es geht mal berab und danach bergauf. Aber für mich ungeübte gut machbar. Alle Wege gut ausgeschildert und gepflegt. Im Herbst eine Augenweide.

    Schöner Rundweg der komplett im ( jetzt herbstlich gefärbten ) Laubwald verläuft. Daher auch sehr gut für heiße Sommertage geeignet. Die Heubergkopfhütte ist eine echte Augenweide. Hier kann man nach der Wanderung noch kurz verweilen.
