View of the Ammergau Alps

Highlight • Viewpoint

Suddenly everything seems big! From the Milchweg you not only have a first-class view of the Ammergau Alps, binoculars are also available. So you can get a close look at the happily grazing cows.

Today I set off again to visit one of the most beautiful churches in Bavaria, the Wieskirche. On the way back, I took a short break at the Schönberger Käsealm. Another beautiful day today with a fantastic view.

Today I felt like visiting the Wieskirche again. I prayed to the scourged Savior there that he would protect us from storms. On the way back I stopped at the Schönegger Käsealm for a little snack. Man does not live by words alone. 🍗🍺

April 8, 2024, Pfaffenwinkel, Schongau bis Wieskirche im mystischen Saharanebel 🌤️😎🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️

Since things went so well on Sunday with the Komoot cycling group 🚴‍♀️🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️.., we were able to continue on Monday in similar sunny weather (if the ☀️ can make it out of the Sahara haze). My legs were still up to it 😁 It's also beautiful in the Pfaffenwinkel when the Alps peek mystically through the dust mist and you can only guess at their outlines. The meadows in the hilly landscape, glowing yellow with dandelions, make up for it 🤩 We cycled a lap from Schongau to the Wieskirche and then went back via the Wildsteig. The pictures can tell the rest. It was another all-round blissful and culinary lap in the most wonderful landscape 🤩
