Former Wäschenbeuren station (Hohenstaufen Railway)

Highlight • Historical Site

Well-developed cycle path, interesting history.
When it opened (1911?), the high costs were scoffed at. If they had known back then how much something like that costs today...

On the shady railway line to Wäschenbeuren and back through the pleasantly cool Marbach valley. This is also doable in the current temperatures...😉

While it was very warm and humid in the open field again☀️, it is pleasantly cool in the Mahrbachtal. 🌬️Unfortunately it was still a bit early for the Marbachstüble...😉

A round through the Marbachtal is always nice. Unfortunately, at the moment it gives the impression that the "Marbachstüble" kiosk is not opening. There were problems with the authorities here and it actually seemed as if the opening in 2023 should still be possible. Let's be surprised... it would be a shame if it didn't work out.
