A very beautiful, varied tour with many informative information panels. Great views from the almost 40-meter-high observation tower.

After Mother's Day lunch at the "Alte Mühle" country hotel, a nice round in the Pfungener Ried. Sooo beautiful wooden plank paths and lots of fauna and flora. In the end, heavy rain 🌧 set in for the last 2.5 km and we got soaking wet 🫢
