    In Lochautal from Wohnsdorf to Plankenfels (or vice versa) you usually drive on single trails along the river. A beautiful route that is highly recommended for scenic reasons.

      Beautiful valley. The Lochau valley behind the town of Plankenfels is one of the lesser-known and therefore quiet valleys in Franconian Switzerland. Ideal for the mountain bike

        A very beautiful valley. With many weirs on the Lochau. Indescribable peace and relaxation. A valley that sometimes makes the paths difficult to move forward, but you find ways and that is something special

            If you are in the vicinity you should go to the Lochautal. Very beautiful valley.
