I had appointments until 11 am and therefore didn't go far.
Away from the hustle and bustle, the Igelsbachsee. Although also surrounded by bike paths, they are all relatively nice soft forest paths. It drizzled now and then but an umbrella was unnecessary. There are anglers everywhere around the lake.
The zipline was well used today, despite the strong wind …

We arrived at Igelsbachsee as a stopover on the way to Walchensee.
It was supposed to be a little loop around Igelsbachsee. A great little loop, almost always along the shore.

If you feel like it and have enough energy, you can climb in the climbing forest before or after the hike and experience a fast ride across the lake while hanging from a rope in a climbing harness. Right next to the Igelsbachsee is the Brombachsee. Here you can take a …

May 19, 2023,🏞️🚐🌳 Altmühltal: Spalt-Enderndorf ~ Rundgang um den idyllischen Igelsbachsee

And because it was so beautiful at Brombachsee and yesterday evening too late, we also circled Igelsbachsee today. It is smaller but actually more beautiful/idyllic. Particularly intense as always in the evening sun.
And at the end of this beautiful day there was another delicious dinner in the black eagle 😋😋.
Knowledge of the day:
Water, forest, clouds and sun …
