The panoramic path from the Hotel am See is accessible for wheelchair users. Attention: Here the starting point is incorrect for technical reasons. From the dam, the path is NOT accessible to wheelchair users. In the pictures you can see the "starting point" (actually the turning point of the tour) about 150 m from the dam wall in the middle of the forest. The descent of the stairs is not accessible with a wheelchair, even with assistance, and is only suitable for people who can walk.

For technical reasons, the tour is not recorded from the start. The starting point is the hotel by the lake (end point of the tour recorded here). You can easily determine the length yourself and go the same way there and back. This is not a problem as the views are very different and fantastic. Attention at the beginning of the tour: There is a “Variant to the Lake” sign right at the beginning. This is only possible for very athletic wheelchair users or with help, as at the end of the variant there is a short (around 20-30 m) but very steep climb to the main path. The rest of the way is easy to do on a solid forest or gravel path. There are numerous very nice rest areas.
