There's a beautiful view here and it's a great place to relax.

For me, the most important thing is what Michael writes about the Iller Cycle Path. It's boring, with lots of forested stretches and no view. It's only usable from Immenstadt onward. The Günz Valley Cycle Path is varied, but it can get crowded on weekends.

A shady spot to enjoy this idyllic setting for a few minutes. The peace and quiet of the forest provide renewed strength for the rest of the journey.

It's hard to imagine how large the small stream can become before it flows into the Danube. A foot bath in the ice-cold water is refreshing and recharges your batteries on your bike. :-)

Beautiful route, Bernbeuren's market square is a must-see.

Former castle of the Kempten Abbey governors and stewards, in the 19th century an inn, now the seat of the market town administration; a mighty three-story building with a steep gable roof that dominates the townscape, extensively rebuilt in 1594 over the older core, interior redesigned in Baroque style in 1695/96, corner turrets with spires modernized
