Tip by

734 m

From the shore, you have a direct view of the wide reservoir, framed by green meadows and wooded shorelines. Especially at sunrise or sunset, the sky and landscape are reflected picturesquely in the water—a true delight for hikers, photographers, and nature lovers.

The Two Earthworks in Westerholz

Highlight • Historical Site

Two ramparts in the Westerholz region
Small rampart:
Bronze Age (1800-1250 BC) and La Tène period (500-15 BC) shards have accumulated at this site over time.

Large rampart:
A embankment and a ditch begin at the head of the erosion gully and extend in a wide arc, first eastward, then southward, and finally westward to the edge of the slope.
Roman pottery pieces have also been found at the rampart.

Wildflower meadow in the Lech Valley

Highlight (Segment) • Natural

After it went over hill and dale on the other side of the river and was therefore quite narrow on the way there, the whole width of the Lech Valley can be seen again here. Nice.

For the first time in the new year, we met for the traditional winter hike at our nature friends' house "Oskar-Weinert-Hütte". We made a circuit along the Lech-Höhenweg in familiar terrain. We had interesting views of the wintry Lech valley that you can only have in a leafless winter.
