    The former railway line runs almost directly past the origin of the Schussen.

      Comfortable footpath next to the disused tracks

        The disused railway line near Bad Schussenried is the former Federsee Railway, a narrow-gauge railway (750 mm gauge) that operated from 1896 to 1969 and connected Bad Schussenried to Riedlingen. After passenger service ceased in 1964 and freight service in 1969, most of the track was dismantled.
        However, a remaining section of the section near the Schussen spring from Bad Schussenried to the peat works was converted to standard gauge in the 1970s to maintain operations. In 2013, approval was granted to permanently dismantle the tracks, but this has not yet been completed.
