Hiking

The suspension bridge spans the river near Rotkreuz and offers an exciting crossing with a gentle sway – a popular photo spot and stop for hikers. Directly next to it is a freely accessible observation tower, from which you can enjoy magnificent views of the Iller and the surrounding landscape. Both locations are easily integrated into a circular hike and offer a beautiful combination of nature experience and views.

Hiking

132 steps lead up to the airy platform. Due to the valley location of the observation tower, the view from the top doesn't really change. 🤦🏻‍♂️😅

Not only the Illersteg and the observation tower are a highlight. Kneipptretbad, pond (with grass snake) and fish ladder invite you to linger.
