Happurg Reservoir Panorama Trail

Highlight • Trail

Who needs the Allgäu? A beautiful route around the lake surrounded by the mountains of Hersbrucker Schweiz. The path is well paved, has enough places to rest and there is also a history path from Happurg

And then always be careful that the service …

On a creepy "Gaudete" morning, I chose the Happurg History Trail today. "Gaudete" is what the third Sunday in Advent is called, and "Gaudete" was also the motto of my little hike around the reservoir. What can I say, despite light snowfall and the dreary "grey" there was actually joy. Again and again the sun peaked through the clouds, the …
