The daylily field near St. Stephan is the largest daylily field in Europe. Daylilies and other orchid species bloom every June. The biotope borders the Lech floodplain forest. Picking is strictly prohibited!

The DAYLILY FIELD is part of the Lech floodplain forest with its natural growth of trees and shrubs. The floodplain forest is to be preserved as a vegetation bridge between the Alps and the Jura, as climate protection and as a landscape element of the Lech plain. The Lech once had its bed with its widely branched arms at the level of the daylily field. The NATURAL MONUMENT "DAYLILY FIELD" was placed under protection in 1982. The purpose of the protection is to preserve the characteristic remaining area of the original Lech floodplain landscape and to protect the existing plants. The existing, mostly rare plants here include the daylily, as well as the bumblebee orchid, the spider orchid, various types of hagwort, the lady's slipper, the Turk's cap lily, the lemon balm, the flax, the Siberian iris, the daphne and the laserwort. The tendrils of the clematis are also typical of the floodplain forest. The daylily (scientific name from the Greek "Hemerocallis lilio-asphodelus" - which corresponds to the German translation "day beauty") blooms in June. The plant is not native to Central Europe, but to the Mediterranean countries and southeastern Europe. However, it was naturalized in Germany centuries ago. The individual flower usually only opens for one Day. There are up to 8 flowers on one stem, which bloom on consecutive days. The LILY MEADOW with a closed population of thousands of plants is now a botanical treasure and can be described as unique in Central Europe. The property has been owned by the Swabian Natural Science Association since 1930. The annual maintenance is carried out by the "Friends of Nature" e.V. St. Stephan association.

The Silberbrünnel near Hollenbach, also known as Silberbrünnl, is an idyllic hillside and spring moor in the Bernbach Forest near Motzenhofen, a district of the municipality of Hollenbach in the Aichach-Friedberg district. It owes its name to the mica-containing sediments in the stream bed, which shimmer silver in the sunlight.  Nature reserve: The area has been under landscape protection since 1971 in order to preserve the unique flora and fauna. Rare plant species can be found here, such as the orchid, a type of orchid, the butterwort, a carnivorous plant, the marsh iris, the Turk's cap lily, the Siberian iris and the cotton grass with its strikingly fluffy white seed heads. The sundew, another carnivorous plant, can also be found here.  Hiking and relaxation: The Silberbrünnel is a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers. Various hiking trails lead through the area and offer insights into the diverse nature. A recommended route is the circular hike over the Silberbrünnel, which offers both city impressions of St. Georgen and impressions of the surrounding forest and nature.  Getting there: The Silberbrünnel is easily accessible from Hollenbach. Parking is available at the large solar field near Oberbernbach. From there, signposted paths lead to the Silberbrünnel.  Information for visitors: In order to protect the sensitive nature, visitors should stay on the designated paths and be considerate of the flora and fauna. The area is a valuable biotope, the preservation of which depends on responsible behavior.  The Silberbrünnel near Hollenbach therefore offers a unique opportunity to experience the beauty and diversity of nature in Bavaria.

The Chardonnaybach is an artificially created stream in the "Lechauen Nord" landscape conservation area near Gersthofen, north of Augsburg. It was created in 1996 to re-irrigate the Lech floodplains east of the Lech and thus revitalize valuable wetland habitats. Origin and course: As there was no natural water available on the east side of the Lech, a pipeline (culvert) was laid under the Lech to take water from the Lech side canal to the west. The water pressure now allows one cubic meter of water per second to reach the east bank. There it emerges in an artificial spring and initially feeds the newly created Chardonnaybach, which flows into the Branntweinbach after 850 meters. Ecological significance: The re-irrigation allowed wetland habitats to develop again in the previously dried-up Lech floodplains. The presence of the beaver in particular has contributed to the return of amphibians, dragonflies, reptiles and typical marsh plants. However, the activities of the beaver also mean that pedestrian paths are permanently flooded and the water no longer follows the planned course. Nature conservation is currently trying to specifically direct the activities of the beaver so that the water flows through again. Leisure and recreation: The Chardonnaybach and its surroundings are popular destinations for hikers and nature lovers. A nature trail, known as the “Jungle Trail in the Lechauen Nord”, leads through parts of the biotope and offers informative panels on the flora and fauna of the region. Guided tours are offered by the Augsburg Environmental Station. Getting there: The source of the Chardonnaybach is located east of the Lech near the Gersthofen tennis club. The stream runs directly under the high-voltage power line in the “Lechauen Nord” landscape conservation area. The Chardonnaybach is a successful example of renaturation measures that bring both ecological benefits and create recreational opportunities for the population.

Draw spring water

Spring water can be drawn here. To do this, cups hang on the tree.

Honestly, who creates a mountain bike highlight in which cycling is forbidden?

Gravel gem next to the citizen cage race track. Fantastic in the morning and with sheep.
