Very idyllic, feels like it's way out in the sticks. But also with infrastructure.

The history of Welzheim dates back to the time of the Roman Empire: Around 160 AD, the Romans established a fort here during the construction of the Upper Germanic-Raetian Limes border fortifications. Between the two forts and south of the western fort, a civilian settlement also developed in the following years. This vicus was thus located somewhat south of medieval and modern Welzheim. For the town's 800th anniversary in 1980, the smaller eastern fort was reconstructed and supplemented by an archaeological park in 1993; the remains of the western fort were built over in the 20th century.

Between Täferrot and the dam, this more scenic section runs along the Lein River. Parallel to the other side of the official cycle path.

From the parking lot, you can spot the observation tower a short distance later. The Mögglingen observation tower at Grubenholz, also known as the "Limes Tower," stands at an impressive 10 meters high. From up there, you have a magnificent view over the Remstal valley all the way to the Three Kaiser Mountains of Hohenstaufen, Rechberg, and Stuifen. https://www.bloggmaus.de/2023/07/wanderung-limesweg-wurzelkinder-mogglingen.html
