Root Carpet in Wackelwald, Federsee

Highlight • Forest

In the wobbly forest, everything wobbles, but if you look closely, you'll discover quite a few things: exposed roots that form a beautiful carpet.

Federsee Nature Reserve

Highlight • Natural Monument

If you bring time and binoculars with you when visiting the Federsee, you can observe many waterfowl and fish. For us it also had something calming.
