Its idyllic location and the impressive view of the Allgäu Alps make Hopfensee a worthwhile destination for a bike tour. The view of the lake is particularly attractive at sunset, when the mountains in the background shine in warm colors.

Lech Falls and the Bust of King Maximilian II

Highlight • Waterfall

Should look gigantic, especially during floods. Immediately afterwards the river flows through a narrow gorge. You can see everything from the pedestrian bridge.
