Wooden Bridge Over the Aubach

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge takes you over the romantic Aubach stream, which gently babbles along. You're surrounded by beautiful mixed forest. In spring, when the sun awakens the buds of the deciduous trees, various bird species flock here.

Today we headed toward Lake Constance.
A fantastic tour in the Deggenhausertal valley. Gorgeous forest trails, beautiful, albeit somewhat cloudy, views, and perfect weather. It was a blast!

The Höchsten isn't making it easy for me! It's not the difficult climb, though, because at 842 meters, it's the highest point in the Linzgau region, but as a "mountain," it's rather diminutive.

No, the reason for the difficulty is that every time I want to visit it, it regally shrouds itself in a blanket of clouds.

This premium-certified tour takes you to the "highest" point in the region at 820m. The hiking car park is easy to approach and free of charge.
At the starting point of the hike, it goes back to the village.
A small breakfast is recommended, because you will soon get to the "Bergstüble" and you should definitely stop here. The longest …

Round through a beautiful autumnal landscape. Right at the beginning there is the 3.5 km long ascent to the highest, which should actually be rewarded with a clear view, but today it was nothing. But that didn't detract from the beauty of this round.

For the second time we hiked the Landgang Weg Bergtour Höchsten this time from Limpach. There are parking spaces at the Gasthof Mohren. The paths were sometimes slippery to soft and the fog was our constant companion, but it was still great. We will repeat in the spring.
