Very nice tour, but there is currently a construction site and you have to walk on the road for some time. Not recommended for families with children. Otherwise nice walking paths and great views. The Staufensee offers many opportunities for a snack break

Parked at the museum and walked through the gorge to the lake. Not suitable for strollers because of the 200 steps.
Unfortunately, you cannot currently walk the upper part through the gorge due to construction work.
The lake had little water, you can go on a mudflat hike.
