The Bockelbahn is very nice to ride. Unfortunately there are no signs or panels on the history of the Bockelbahn.
The route would be a tourist highlight, but is unfortunately ignored or deliberately kept secret.
Pity...

The path runs off the roads through meadows and forests. But is not asphalted, only gravel.

In Bavaria, the Bockerl or Bockerlbahn (regionally also Bockl, Bockela, Bockerla, Boggala or Bockelbahn) refers to railway trains on branch lines that used to be mostly pulled by a steam locomotive. As a rule, a local name suffix was added. The designation was synonymous with both the vehicle material used and the route itself.Source: Wikipedia
