View of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau Castles Over Forggensee

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view across Lake Forggensee to Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau castles is a magical panorama that perfectly captures the beauty of Bavaria. In the foreground you can see the calm, turquoise waters of Lake Forggensee, framed by rolling hills and green meadows. Behind them rise the majestic Allgäu Alps, in which the two famous castles are nestled.

Neuschwanstein Castle, with its tall towers and fairytale appearance, sits on a hill and almost seems to float above the forests and mountains. Not far away is the slightly more modest but equally historic Hohenschwangau Castle, easily recognizable by its yellow facade. On a clear day, especially in summer, the entire panorama is reflected in the smooth surface of Lake Forggensee, making the view even more impressive.

Füssen Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Bavaria's highest town offers pure romance. The cozy cafés and many small shops in the medieval old town invite you to a detailed stroll with a slightly Italian flair. The Museum of the City of Füssen offers magnificent baroque rooms and one of Europe's most beautiful collections of historical lutes and violins. From the High Castle with its impressive illusions, you have the best view over the roofs of Füssen.

At the intersection of high mountains and foothills of the Alps Füssen is also in the immediate vicinity of Ludwig's fairy tale castle Neuschwanstein and numerous bathing lakes.

Cycled around the lake again for a long time. Today, probably totally calm due to the weather, I met a cyclist on more than 30 km.

September 13, 2021,Blick über den Hopfensee – Forggensee Runde von Hopfen am See

On the way to our short vacation to Tyrol, we stopped at the Hopfensee to cycle around the Forggensee.
Unfortunately Komoot messed up the beginning and the end while tracking, which are missing here in the track.
The start and finish is in Hopfen am See.
In total it was 44km with the best cycling weather.

July 20, 2024,🚵🏼 Forggensee mal 🔄 andersrum 🌄 🍺 🍦

In the evening, we went for another lovely final lap around the lake. There was even time for a draft beer and an ice cream. And we were able to find/log a geocache on an island in the lake. How? Out of your clothes, into the cool water and swim across 🏊🏼!

I only know the Forggensee in summer: full of water 💦 Fascinating in winter with very little water.... and then of course: the noticeable presence of the fairy tale king from a completely different time 🫅🐍✨

The pries have to go through 😂 But today the colors of the water, the mountain, animal and plant world just fascinated, awesome! 🤩 …

March 17, 2024,Um den Forggensee bei Füssen

Leisurely bike ride around the Füssen lake landscape.

We made the most of the small gap in the clouds this morning. Because of the rain yesterday, running wasn't that motivating and there was mostly slushy snow towards the top.
So we went on the first leisurely bike ride of the year. From Schwangau around Lake Forggensee over the simplest paths …
