Fish ladders on the Günz and a great view

A beautifully designed fish ladder, which at first glance isn't even recognizable as such. Next door, a larger-than-life horse in the meadow

A real gem of the Laubgang

To us, a mill pond like the one presented to the biker here may seem very ordinary, but in the fantasy world of someone like Otfried Preußler (1923 to 2013), who became famous with the children's books he wrote, things look very different: It is also the habitat of a water sprite family, and his book "The Little Water Sprite", which is still popular today, tells of the adventures that the family's offspring experience in the mill pond. The "Stiftung Lesen" reviews it: "The water sprite invited twenty-seven relatives - and twenty-six came. Twelve water sprites with their wives, a well man and the bridge woman from St. Nepomuk's Bridge! And they all accepted the invitation because they want to see the little water sprite that the water sprite dad is so proud of. And he can be - because the cheeky little shirt-faced boy can already swim, barely having been born. And he learns everything else faster than his worried parents would like. His friend, the cautious carp Cyprinus, can sometimes only wiggle his fins... The children's book classic from 1956 has already enchanted generations of readers, who can then pass on their own childhood memories as well as the fantastic adventures of the little water sprite when reading aloud to children aged around 5 and above."

The tree and art trail is located east of Illertissen on the way to the well-known Gaissmayer perennial nursery, and the Illertissen airfield is also very close by. You don't have to pay an entrance fee to visit the tree and art trail and there are no opening hours. Dogs on a leash are also allowed. Our dog Bronco really enjoyed the many steel animals and wooden figures. He often only notices at second glance that something like that isn't "real". 👀😀 The path through the tree and art trail isn't particularly long, it must be roughly 400 meters. Together with the guest tree garden, it's probably 2000 square meters. But it's still a lot of fun and there's a lot to discover! If you want, you can also sit on the raised seat and look at everything from above. There are information boards with interesting information in front of many plants, bushes and trees.

You have a wonderful view and the fish troop is really well designed and integrated into nature

A beautiful reservoir, there are many birds to watch here.

Very beautiful lake, invites you to linger. Greetings Marcus
