    Hiking

    According to legend, when a witch was escaping from Switzerland while riding across the lake, she took her first step onto the small (now disappeared) witch's stone and then onto the large witch's stone, and with her third step she reached the opposite shore of the mainland.

It is also said in Lindau that the Hexenstein in front of the Römerschanze still shows the footprint that Aurelia left behind during her legendary landing.
