Behind the town hall is the starting point for the annual Cloverleaf March in Aindling at the end of September. It truly deserves a full recommendation!

Never heard of soccer golf? Then it's time! This sporty variation of mini golf replaces clubs and golf balls with soccer balls and physical exertion. Played on long grass courses, the goal remains the same: to get the ball into the hole with as few shots as possible. That's not easy, as there are obstacles to overcome along the way. At the Rehling Soccer Park, 18 varied courses await you, beautifully blended into the landscape – perfect for an active outing with friends, family, or colleagues. And don't worry: You don't have to be a professional soccer player to play soccer golf. A bit of skill, a love of exercise, and a bit of luck – that's all you need! The highlight: From the course, you can enjoy a stunning view of Scherneck Castle, which proudly stands atop the Lechleite.

The Chapel of Our Lady of Seven Sorrows was built at the end of the 17th century. It was badly damaged in a tornado in 2015, only the statue of the Virgin Mary remained intact. The view from up here is also particularly beautiful.

The castle was built at the end of the 17th century on the same site where several previous buildings had stood. It is privately owned and not open to the public.
