At the starting point, we turn north towards Hegge onto the Iller riverside path. With the river on our right, we pass a pleasantly shaded path that still offers some last views of Waltenhofen before entering an idyllic wooded section.
Next, a sunny path follows, where we keep right at a fork. Later, there is a first access to the Iller riverbank via a gravel bed. The subsequent coniferous forest section is followed by a clearing that offers a great panoramic view of the mountains to the left.
Behind a bridge, we pass the Waltenhofen casting works. On open terrain, we head toward the motorway bridge, which we pass under. Following the substation is a weir, which we bypass with the slight right bend of the Iller. At the height of Hegge, we reach the northernmost point of the route and change the river side via the bridge, following Illerstraße before turning right onto Sulzberger Straße. Before the motorway, we keep left and finally pass under it heading towards Öschlesee. After the houses, we turn left toward Öschle and ride parallel to Lake Sulzberger back to the country road. We soon keep right onto Burgratzer Straße.
At the height of Steingaden, we come closer to the Iller again. Via a moderate ascent, we reach Haneberg and shortly after Burgratz. On an easy descent, we pass Hub and Moos before reaching Widuum, which offers a pond designated as a European protected area. Coming closer to the river course, we continue to Häusern, where we turn over the bridge.
There is a war memorial on the right before we rejoin the bike path on the Iller embankment. On a straight stretch, we enjoy the shaded section leading us past a gravel pit lake and quiet river sections before finally arriving back in Waltenhofen shortly after a small bridge.
