Beautiful swimming and water sports lake, great bike path around the lake. There are very beautiful beaches, good gastronomy and with the MS Brombachsee you can also comfortably sail across the lake.

Here's the video of the tour:

Beautiful bike tour around the Altmühlsee with bird island, small Brombachsee, Brombachsee and Igelsbachsee. When the weather is nice, be sure to bring your bathing suit. A detour to Vogelinsel in Altmühsee is definitely worth it.

Today the €5 parking fee was collected again directly.
It starts west to the Altmühlsee through the forest and along the Überleiter. Then continue to Altmühlsee and take a leisurely stroll around. Almost all restaurants are already open at Easter. We went back almost the same way and continued north when we arrived at the small Brombachsee. After a refreshment …

Altmühlsee and Brombachsee had been on my list for a long time. Today, with the beautiful weather, I spontaneously set off... Beautiful lakes, but don't do it on a holiday with such glorious weather! Everything's packed, the beaches are overcrowded, and there are long lines for food... Bottom line: Beautiful lakes, but do it when it's not a holiday!

Today it went from the Absberg parking space around the Igelbachsee Kleiner and Großer Brombachsee over the Überleiter to the Altmühlsee around and back. Beautiful ways. Great to drive. 😁

Absolutely amazing 60km tour with super beautiful viewpoints in every corner around the lake district. Easy to ride with very few uphill sections.

Today, to round off a week of mixed weather in Franconia, I rode around Lake Altmühl and Lake Brombach again. Tomorrow, I'm heading home.

I didn't feel like doing anything else because of the even stronger wind than yesterday.

It doesn't always have to be long and strenuous rides...

Very nice tour
The weather report was right. 20% rain then caught us in the forest. Rain and hail. Then back on muddy paths! But survived.
