On the "Romantic Road" cycle path you pass Neuschwanstein at some distance. Even from a distance, the castle unfolds its magic.

August 12, 2025,Blick auf Lechsee – Blick auf Forggensee Runde von Lechbruck

Actually a very nice tour, but unfortunately, a large part of the bike path runs along a federal highway, and Lake Forggensee was very crowded today. But that's just how it is in peak season 🫣
Oh yeah, and it was hot today too. The only thing that cooled me down was water 💦

A fantastically beautiful tour. The section we cycled on the Via Claudia Augusta long-distance cycle route was particularly unique.

Great ride! We did deviate from the existing route a few times to cycle closer to the lakes. This made the route even more beautiful and adventurous. There's one section where you have to carry the bike up a small flight of stairs. We should be able to manage it together. We're 65 and 64 years old too.

A very nice tour that I have wanted to do for a long time. Today I was able to make perfect use of the rain-free time. 😊 Started in Füssen via Schwangau in the direction of Buching. It was soothingly calm, because I was already on the road at around 8:00 a.m. It is a particularly relaxing place to cycle. …

Once again Allgäu with the best weather, although it was quite cloudy for the last 15km. We started in Roshaupten (tip: parking at the school is free on weekends) to the Lech reservoir. Via Steingaden, with a delicious cappuccino, we went to the Wieskirche. This church is always worth a visit. Continue over the Bannwaldsee to Schwangau. The local cheese …

May 11, 2024,...es ist nur ein einziger berg😉

A worthwhile tour. Even much younger and more trained people failed at the point where we stopped. Therefore, the Tegelberghaus is not accessible by bike. But the Drehhütte and the Rohkopfhütte are worth a visit. If you like things a little more dignified, you should head to the Rohkopfhütte.

Parking is free at the starting point, which is generally not a problem in Roßhaupten :)
The tour is easy to ride. There's hardly any elevation gain and almost all of it is on asphalt.
