Roadbook
From the market square, passing the glacier garden, the Schussen source is reached. About 15,000 years ago, Paleolithic nomadic hunters stayed there. They used a geological bottleneck to hunt migrating reindeer herds. Via the settlement of Aichbühl, the Riedschachen area is reached. The signposts continue through the forest, and on a paved path, you reach the Weilberg with beautiful views of the glacier tongue-shaped landscape. Upon reaching the summit, the village of Steinhausen with its baroque pilgrimage church reveals its full splendor. The path leads down to Steinhausen, where a visit to the church is recommended. Continuing through Steinhausen along the country road past a wayside shrine to the "Frenchmen's grave," which commemorates the dead of the Napoleonic Wars. Via Lauhaus and Olzreute, you reach the outskirts of Bad Schussenried; from there, you proceed along the St. Magnus church and the monastery back to the market square.
