Johannisbruneen is unfortunately dry, there is only a small pond left. There is no signage. You can only find the place if you know it or follow Komoot.

Close by is the Cloef, a well-visited vantage point. From this very quiet bench, the view is almost as beautiful. With peace and without hustle and bustle.

The further way can - for example - via Metz, Cluny, Dijon, Le Puy en Velay, then further through the southern foothills of the Massif Central through the Aubrac, in the direction of the Pyrenees to Saint Jean Pied de Port, and from there to Spain on the "Camino" frances "lead.
