Comments
The path around the lake is very wet. Waterproof shoes or wellies are required.
The trail is very easy, but dogs are not recommended off-leash. There are numerous waterfowl.

Parked at the free parking lot at the Illmensee outdoor pool.
The nature trail is nice to walk and offers views of the lake (mostly fishing spots, not yet occupied at the moment).
There are also a few information boards with information about the lake.

We had actually planned the hike to be 10 kilometers long, circumnavigating the nearby Ruschweiler See.
However, the icy wind threw a spanner in the works.
