Bannwald Tower (Pfrunger-Burgweiler Ried)

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the tower's observation deck, you have a magnificent 360° view of the reed bed. The tower features numerous wooden statues of local animals. There's also a small room with information panels at the bottom right of the tower base.

Rotach Valley

Highlight • River

The Rotach is interesting along its entire length, but the section from the Haslach mill near Siessen to the Schönemühle near Urnau is truly unique. At 8km only 3 farms on the whole route, no roads, no cars, no railway line, no civilization, no noise - just the splashing of the stream. Go here almost daily to commute with dog along.

Rotach River Trail

Highlight • Trail

Beautiful route from Benistobel along the Rotach to Jonistobel through the valley.
It is always easy to go up and down through lonely landscapes.

Wilhelmsdorf Nature Museum and European Watershed

Highlight • Historical Site

A wonderful starting point for hikes and walks through the Ried, but also for all kinds of bike tours. A new playground has recently been opened. Therefore, this place is also ideal for families with small children. You can go on very small or large hikes through the Ried, or go on a bike tour with the children without any mountain on almost car-free routes. For hikers, the adventure trails have been lovingly created by the nature conservation association and are always fun, even several times ...
If you want to know more about the origins of the reed and the history of Wilhelmsdorf, you can visit the museum for a small fee. Great and understandable, also suitable for children. Worth it!
