Very nice. There are many places along the shore to take a break or go into the water.

It's best to go in the morning when there's not much going on 😂

Up here at the "Sonnendachl" viewpoint, you can look both toward Lake Ammersee and into the hinterland, where, with a good eye, you can make out the roughly square area of the Celtic rampart. - Warning: It's truly idyllic and relaxing. Coming here is worthwhile for more than one reason. You'd love to walk along the field path right away. A wide loop would be possible, which would also lead close to the Celtic rampart (first downhill and westward, then continuing clockwise). However, the Celtic rampart is nothing more than a striking meadow! While the place is definitely special, it's a disappointment in terms of appearance. But it's always good to have a destination in the beautiful landscape!
