May 8, 2025,Von Überlingen nach Meersburg über Kloster Birnau
A short trip by train from Ulm via Friedrichshafen to Überlingen. From there, we walked to Birnau Monastery
(very worth seeing). A small kiosk invites you to linger. The coffee and cake were excellent.
In Unteruhldingen, we then climbed the HW 9.
This leads through the forest to Meersburg, with some magnificent views of the lake.

In summer there are too many tourists there and it's not nice anymore. So we were able to enjoy the walk and return home by ferry, bus and train. …

The views are idyllic and the forests are currently colored in bright colors. It was an all-round …
