It's nice to sit outside, the lake is pretty and there are various small animal enclosures. The food is delicious and the prices are okay.

April 22, 2026,Otterbachtal Wanderung

Today we went into the Otterbachtal valley. We started near Oberlichtenwald and first walked along the western side of the Otterbach stream. There was a rather tricky section on a steep slope, with a very slippery path that offered little grip. However, it was only about 10 meters that had to be overcome. But, it was the only way to …

On the way there I recommend waterproof hiking boots and you should also be able to climb a bit. In addition, I am always amazed where Komoot can still see ways, without Komoot one would certainly have turned around.

The 600 meters of altitude given by Komoot are wrong. About 150 meters in altitude are correct, so a relaxed, long walk.

The hike begins at the hikers' car park approx. 200 meters south of the beautiful "Koreaner" inn. Scenically very attractive, it first goes along the stream, through forest and floodplain landscapes.

It was my first time there, and there was nothing going on. A few hikers and a few mountain bikers. Unfortunately, the Korean restaurant was closed today.

We recommend starting in Bruckhäusl at the Koreawirt parking lot. Walk down the Otterbach stream to the bridge and then back down the other side. At the Heuweg start, the path to the stream is blocked and overgrown. A beautiful tour, with a lovely stream and a beautiful forest. Surefootedness is required in some places (fallen trees, etc.).
