ビーセンホーフェンの天然記念物・トップ20

The ascent from Bernbeuren to the Auerberg through the Feuerstein Gorge and the adjoining Jägersteig trail is a popular hike in the western Pfaffenwinkel region. The wildly romantic lower section of the trail mostly follows the stream, while further up it frequently crosses small footbridges from one side of the stream to the other.

Access to the pond and swimming are free of charge. There is a children's swimming area, a playground, and a bathing island in the pond. For the past few years, swimming may not be possible in summer due to low water levels. In extreme dry weather, the pond's outflow is opened to ensure that the river mussels get enough water. A nice description can be found on the website of the town of Marktoberdorf, to which the pond belongs: https://www.marktoberdorf.de/freizeit-touristik/baeder-seen/ettwieser-weiher An alternative swimming pond without any infrastructure is the nearby Kuhstallweiher pond. A short walk takes you across the neighboring farms (in the Ettwiesen district) towards Kohlunden and past the old Roman tower, about 2 km away. On the southern shore of the Ettwieser Weiher, you'll find the "Klette am Ette" climbing garden with 11 courses of varying difficulty levels.

Beautiful path through the reed moor

Nice, short wooden footbridge over the water. You are only informed shortly before the start that cyclists are not welcome here. It would be better to announce this much earlier. I then pushed my bike over the footbridge, which was no problem as there were hardly any pedestrians around.

A very great and adventurous gorge for young and old. Be careful, the roots can become tripping hazards.

The Via Damasia leads through the Feuerstein Gorge and over the Jägersteig to the Auerberg (1055m)

Great running circuit around the pond, over Wiesn and through the forest. With a fabulous Alpine panorama
