Härtnagel Riverside Path on the Iller

A great trail through the forest on the banks of the Iller. Be careful on the bank, parts can break off from time to time. So stay on the path.

This somewhat hidden vantage point, not recorded on the Komoot map, is located in the middle of the cliff face and offers a great view down to the Iller and into the wide landscape.

Nasengrub Historical Site and Iller River Crossing

Highlight • Historical Site

This place was first mentioned in 1394 and it belonged to the Kempten monastery. Here was a landing stage for the Iller rafting company.
A ferry later operated here until the first bridge was built in 1925.

Met friends from Germany and Switzerland in 1987 in the Pyrenees. Since then we have been meeting once a year, 4 days, mostly on Corpus Christi or Ascension Day in one place, one region in one of these countries. I am proud of this friendship.

New soles, new luck?! At least I'll be able to run in the Swabian Alb next week 🙏 (I was about to cancel, but with 90% cancellation costs... 🤦‍♀️)
The route was rather boring, so we only give it 3 stars 🤷‍♀️

We started our tour today directly in Kempten. Unfortunately, we walked along pedestrian paths along roads for about 1.5km, but then mostly on gravel and forest paths. On Sunday, the Iller River was still green, but today it was a deep brown and felt truly rip-roaring. A very nice, flat hike, and the weather was also perfect for this tour.
