Great view. I've lived here for a long time, but I've never crossed this bridge before.

The wood thieves have been caught! Here at the last station of the forest nature trail "On the trail of the wood thieves" you can recover from the little chase and treat yourself to a well-earned snack.

The Schmuttertal stretches along the Schmutter river in the Bavarian administrative district of Swabia. The Schmutter is a 96-kilometer-long river that flows into the Danube from the right opposite Donauwörth after a generally northerly course. In Täfertingen, a district of Neusäß, the Schmuttertal shapes the landscape and offers a wide range of opportunities for nature and leisure activities. Landscape and nature: The Schmuttertal near Täfertingen is characterized by its natural river landscape with alluvial forests, wet meadows and a rich flora and fauna. The regular flooding of the Schmutter promotes biodiversity and creates habitats for numerous animal and plant species. This area is part of the Schmuttertal biodiversity project, which promotes biodiversity and protects the natural habitat. Leisure opportunities: Well-developed cycling and hiking trails run along the Schmutter, inviting you to take long tours. The section between Ottmarshausen and Neusäß in particular offers idyllic paths for walks and bike tours. Anglers appreciate the Schmutter for its abundance of fish, although the relevant permits are required. Sights: In Täfertingen there is the Church of the Assumption of Mary, which used to be a popular destination for pilgrims. An old Gothic image still indicates this today. A carved group on the altar, the so-called “Täfertinger Mariä Tod”, is also Gothic. This is attributed to Veit Stoß’s school. Kneipp facility at the old water house: On the edge of the forest in Täfertingen, near the old water house of the special purpose association for the water supply of the Loderberg group, a Kneipp pool for water treading was opened in 2011 to mark the 100th anniversary of the Loderberg group. An arm bathing pool followed two years later. It is not only cyclists whose route takes them along it who stop here for a rest. The Schmutter valley near Täfertingen thus offers a harmonious combination of nature experiences, leisure activities and cultural sights.

This great new rest area/shelter/hut is located on the way from Hammel to the Aystetten sulphur spring. Here you can comfortably enjoy a snack or a drink during your break, whatever the weather.
