From spring to late autumn, this circular hike through the Windach valley, classified as a Flora-Fauna-Habitat protected area, is a varied experience. It mainly follows footpaths, often right by the bank of the Windach, through the natural floodplain landscape. Sturdy footwear is recommended as the paths can be somewhat muddy, and especially on the upstream right side, you frequently have to cross small streams.
Warning: DO NOT use the Outdooractive map (incorrect routes, partly over or in the river), USE OpenStreetMap!!!!
