Safety guidelines

Die Etappe ist landschaftlich reizvoll, aber nicht durchgehend leicht: Zwei stärkere Anstiege liegen vor Penig beziehungsweise vor Wechselburg.

Zudem verläuft ein großer Teil auf öffentlichen Straßen, darunter Abschnitte auf Kreis- und Bundesstraßen. Besonders im Bereich der Ortsdurchfahrten, an den Muldebrücken sowie auf der K 8258 in Richtung Lunzenau bitte aufmerksam und defensiv fahren.

Bei Nässe können die Wald-, Schotter- und Pfadabschnitte rutschig sein. Vor dem Start aktuelle Umleitungen und Einschränkungen auf der offiziellen Mulderadweg-Website prüfen.
