"Around Rottenbuch" is a long but very varied route that can also be shortened at any time. The landscape along the way has much to offer: it leads through forests, small gorges, and the viewpoints Mühlegg and Schmauzenberg offer a wonderful mountain panorama. At the end of the route, a visit to the former monastic collegiate church is recommended.
