Bannwald Tower (Pfrunger-Burgweiler Ried)

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the tower's observation deck, you have a magnificent 360° view of the reed bed. The tower features numerous wooden statues of local animals. There's also a small room with information panels at the bottom right of the tower base.

Vogelsee

Highlight • Lake

Like most other lakes in the Burgweiler Ried, the Vogelsee lake was created by industrial peat mining. Peat was mined at the Vogelsee lake from 1970 to 1996. The lake now provides a habitat for many waterfowl and other animals.

Today was the first autumn tour through the "Pfrunger Ried".
Started in Ulzhausen via "old railway embankment peat factory", Vogelweiher. Yes, autumn lived up to the Ried, that's how it has to look, foggy, scary. 👻👻

When we, my mother and I, were on the way back 📉 from Illmensee, we took a detour to Pfrungener Ried 🌿🌿🍃.
Because the Bannwaldturm 🕋 was still foreign to my mother, as was the whole Ried 🌿🌿🍃,
I offered myself as a hiking guide

The big grape was my suggestion.
This was quickly put into practice.

July 5, 2023,Riedwanderweg im Bannwald – Pfrungener Ried. Runde von Judentenberg

One of my most beautiful hikes. Highly Recommended. Nature lovers will definitely get their money's worth here. The path leads along winding paths, through a fascinating water and moor landscape, over the roots of shady forests and meadows. The changing surface (wooden footbridges, forest floor and meadow paths) makes hiking twice as much fun. A little tip for all photo …

January 31, 2024,Abenteuerliche Runde 🗼🐄🥾🦆🦢 durch das Pfrungener Riet

Today Uwe and Norbert made a spontaneous decision to go to Pfrungener Riet: there should be some sun there ☀️!

The start was unspectacular but actually sunny. It glittered to the right and left of the path in the wet meadows and of course in the many ponds and lakes. We passed the pentagonal pond over viewing platforms and soon …
