The riverside path is easy to navigate throughout - and the elevation is low. It's great that the hiking and cycling paths are separate. There are plenty of restaurants on site. A trip to the surrounding villages is also worthwhile.

Beautiful bike paths around the lake. However, also hilly. A pedelec is recommended for infrequent drivers. A bit tiring with small children. More like a day trip.
Lots of places to stop and swim.

This tour is also very nice to do without an e-bike. The tour runs practically close to the shore on great cycle paths and without any particular inclines

had several goals in mind today, but unanimously, it was me🙈
➡️ we're going to Brombachsee🔝.
Early in the morning, so that there's not much going on, or better yet, nothing at all 🥰.

Now I could write a lot about Brombachsee, but Wikipedia or Mr Google knows everything.
