Source of the Weiße Kocher

Highlight • River

The origin of the Kocher is a worthwhile excursion, especially in summer when it is very warm. It's nice and cool by the creek. However, you are usually not alone.

Compact hike with many highlights near Unterkochen:
We started off into the valley to the origin of the Weißer Kocher, where the trees on the idyllic Mühlkanal are finally starting to wear autumn colors. In the valley itself, the water initially flows under the many bridges, only at the rear source is everything dry at the moment.
