Beautiful tour. The highlight is the detour to the Einsiedlerhütte, although it's not an easy path and not easy to find.

A varied tour through vineyards and forest.
The access to the hermitage is somewhat assured.

Interesting tour with some interesting points, such as the mountain cemetery or the summit cross. At the beginning there is a lot of altitude gain, partly over stairs. The second part is quieter, but also a bit more boring, it's a long way through the forest without any notable views. Ideal in hot weather, as there are many shady passages.
