View of Zellsee

Highlight • Viewpoint

Unfortunately a dead end. There was no further way. So back through the forest.
But really so beautiful. The way there is worthwhile.

A beautiful and idyllic path leads along the shore of Lake Zell.

The lake is around 100 hectares in size, is used for fish farming and is currently divided into around forty fish ponds. It is privately owned and not a bathing lake and is designated as a European bird sanctuary (FFH and SPA).

September 4, 2021,NW3 - Paterzell Zellsee Runde
Parking lot at the Landgasthof Zum Eibenwald, the rear parking lot is for hikers. I have declared hiking trail P2 to be a walking trail. It is a beautiful👍❤️👍 path along the Zellsee not only worth seeing for ornithologists. Lots of birds. No asphalt the whole way. You could also lengthen the path, either along the yew path or if …

🥾 Walk through a special forest and along Lake Zell

Our meeting point with our fellow hikers was:
Sunday, May 18, 2025, at 9:30 a.m. – right at the forest parking lot in the Paterzell Yew Forest.


The weather was cool – mostly sweater or jacket weather. Temperatures rarely rose above 15°C. Around 5 p.m., we set off from the …

Parking at the restaurant zum Eibenwald. The lower parking lot is intended for hikers. The Zellsee is a Natura 2000 protected area for waterfowl. Now in winter there is not so much going on. When everything from the south flies north again, it's already full here. You can also extend the round by participating in the yew path ❤️ right …

We started the hike at the free trail parking lot. Well signposted, we walked the yew path to Zellsee. The paths were easy to walk on, sometimes a bit muddy. We passed the Gasthof Eibenwald, which is closed on Mondays. From there it went back to the yew path and back to the parking lot. The tour is very easy.

I didn't want to drive far, so I went to Lake Zell again. The yew forest is also always good😍

sometimes the days when sun and clouds are forecast are the most beautiful - like today ... somehow every picture turned out beautiful, as there was such a wonderful interplay between blue sky and white clouds in the background. When the whole thing was also reflected in the Zellsee, it was all the more beautiful!

Today's round is a short walk through the Paterzeller Eibenwald (nature reserve) on the Eibenpfad including the west bank of the Zellsee (bird sanctuary). The weather today was sunny and warm.

The start and end point is the Eibenwald Wanderparklatz on the WM29 district road between Paterzell and Wessobrunn. It is clearly signposted!

Tour made on 07/24/2021.
