Jungle Trail Lechauen North

Highlight • Trail

The jungle path leads along the Lech and the streams through ragged forest remnants and over heaths under the main roads.

Along the 4 km long nature trail 17 habitats, animal and plant species of the alluvial forest as well as landscape development and maintenance will be presented on 17 information boards. Audiomodules allow you to listen to amphibians, birds and grasshoppers.
 
At each station, in addition to the adult board, a "kid's table" awaits you with a research assignment, a game suggestion, a story, or some other action idea. A special feature here are certainly aerial and underwater shots as an interactive panorama view or as a short film.


The jungle path will be extended by stations over the years. This year, e.g. The station "Hunt" is still under construction and at the station "Kopfweide" a school class from Gersthofen will plant and cultivate pollard willows.

The best way to get to the nature trail is at the parking lot at the Europaweiher (Gersthofer Straße at the Lechbrücke, 86169 Augsburg).

We discovered some new stations during our bike tour ... not only exciting for children! Beautifully landscaped, especially on the rehydrated Branntweinbach has developed into a beautiful biotope. Here also invite some benches to linger.

The Lech is a right tributary of the Danube. The 256 km long river has its source in Vorarlberg and flows through Tyrol and southern Bavaria, where it flows into the Danube. Shortly before the Austrian-German border, it takes up the Vils, forms the artificial Lechfall before Füssen and crosses Swabia and Upper Bavaria on its way. The largest cities on the Lech are Landsberg and Augsburg, where it receives its largest tributary, the Wertach. The river flows into the Danube at Marxheim.

Augsburg Town Hall and Rathausplatz

Highlight • Historical Site

A short photo stop on the Rathausplatz and then on the Maximilianstraße to the south makes this hightlight always a worthwhile detour on every major bike ride.
