What a brilliant vantage point, known for centuries, the view stretches from Lake Constance across the beautiful panorama of the area to the Alps.
There has to be a bench and a barbecue area right here, everything is perfect here.

March 23, 2022,Mega Trail & Gravel MTB Rundtour Seerücken von Ermatingen nach Mammern und die Drohne im Schlepptau

Awesome tour today in glorious weather on great trails and panoramic routes on the Seerücken. Today again in the luggage the drone and the action cam on the helmet. A new video is coming.

Since there is nothing historical today, I will end the blog and stay healthy, alert and enjoy the tours in the great weather.

August 28, 2024,Selfness Panoramatour ab Ermatingen zum steinernen Tisch und Hochwacht

Today's motto: "Just do it - it could be INCREDIBLE"!

An absolutely panoramic pleasure tour and the pictures speak for themselves.

The destination was the stone table and the Hochwacht. The table sits majestically above the lake, many robber barons' feasts took place there and poets, writers and composers sought out the table, the place to work on their works.

May 1, 2022,MTB Rundtour auf dem Seerücken zur Wallfahrtskirche Klingenzell und der Sonnenuhr - Non draco sit mihi duc

Today's MTB tour is based on yesterday's encounter during my hike from Stein am Rhein. In the pouring rain I encountered a procession on the Hemishofer Bridge and struck up a conversation. The figure of St. Mary was brought from St. Kathariental Diessenhofen (former monastery) to the pilgrimage site of the Seven Sorrows of Mary. 4 men carried the massive …

May 26, 2023,Panorama MTB Rundtour auf dem Seerücken zur Sonnenuhr Non draco sit mihi duc

Today's tour description starts with a bit of wisdom: "Not everything has to make sense. Sometimes just having fun is enough and we're not in the world to be perfect. We're here to be happy.” And that's exactly what today's panorama tour was about: fun and being happy, being out and about in the middle of nature and letting your …

September 22, 2021,Seerücken MTB Rundtour zur Ruine Neuburg

Nice MTB round trip in wonderful weather with a few shorter trails and a panorama on the Seerücken.

I have already written a lot about the Neuburg ruins and leave it to you to comment today.

Unfortunately, the US-Mex beach bar in Steckborn was still closed in the afternoon, opening times from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and you can …

November 14, 2022,Trailige Panorama MTB Rundtour zum steinernen Tisch und Hochwacht

True to the motto: "If you stay clean, you can stay at home right away"

Today's traily MTB tour on the Seerücken promised to be a dirty tour after all the moisture and rain of the last few days and that's how it was 😝 deep muddy soils that invite you to soak 🤪
