Please do not try e-bikes or similar because the forest floor is soft and sensitive. The path is wg. steep embankment & thick roots practically impassable. The forest can easily be bypassed a little to the south and you will pass the beer garden.

The Catholic parish church dominates the hill south of Mühlstraße and dominates the townscape of Oberfinning with its tower, which can be seen from afar. The nave, modified around 1710, and the tower were built in the second half of the 15th century. The choir was added to the late Gothic nave in 1754. In the years 1751 to 1754 the interior received a stucco decoration in the Rococo style, which was probably executed by Georg Dötl from Obermühlhausen according to designs by the master builder and plasterer Nikolaus Schütz from Landsberg am Lech. West of the tower is a sacristy covered with a pitched roof. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heilig_Kreuz_(Oberfinning)
