Hidden in the middle of the forest near Hochfirst (706m) you will find the Kammelquelle. The last few meters of the approach are a bit steeper, as you practically ride up the entire Hochfirst. You should definitely leave your bikes at the sign "Zur Kammelquelle" before heading to the spring on foot. The path to the spring only takes about 1 minute. There are 2 benches right at the spring. During my visit, the spring was unfortunately barely flowing.

Beautiful hike from Haldenweg in Markt Rettenbach. First it goes a bit along the edge of the forest, then turn left. You walk straight towards the stone rocks. The ascent is steep and has many stairs. Everything is very well maintained and running well. There is also a bench to rest there, so you can enjoy and catch your breath more deeply.🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️😁
