The beer garden with a very large play park is really nice. To clarify: it is not a beer garden in the classic sense, i.e. with chestnuts, draft beer, etc. But the people there are friendly, the newly built cycle path down to Egglkofen is beautiful, so everything is recommendable.

This section of the cycle path was under construction for what felt like an eternity and was finally finished in 2021. It does not run strictly parallel to the main road, like other cycle paths, but is adapted to the terrain. It is therefore constantly up and down, to the left and right and around houses, while the main road next to it runs straight. That certainly makes sense and was probably cheaper too, it feels like a suspension bridge, a seesaw and a loop are still missing. A really great path, with the main road, cycle path and farm track sometimes right next to each other. The asphalt area is very fine and on inclines there are even markings for oncoming traffic.

Old castle of the Montgelas family with a great history. Rebuilt after being destroyed in the 30 Years War.

Interesting history. Here lived Count von Montgelas, who is considered the architect of modern Bavaria.
