Very delicious farm ice cream in a wide variety of flavors, partly adapted to the season. It is also made by the owner herself 🍦🤩 and anyone interested in the farm and the animals 🐮 can contact her at any time or will even be given a tour. In the farm shop, you can pay with cash 💶 or via Paypal QR code. This also helps those who just stop by on a bike tour. Definitely make the detour here 😁😋

Exciting legend🧜 💦 In sunshine, you can see to the bottom along the edges of the "Bottomless Hole" and observe the water plants and small fish 🐟. Only approx. 100m from the cycle path that leads to Rothenburg, and therefore a clear recommendation for everyone who hikes 🥾 or cycles 🚵🏽♀️🙃 nearby.

I think the term "knee-breaker trail" is an exaggeration. It might be slippery downhill when wet, but always manageable uphill. Good for building fitness going uphill.
