    Tips and suggestions

    With a stroller or wheelchair, the route can be walked with a small modification. Keep right at the house by the Forggensee on Weidachstraße. It goes up in a long left curve. At the next intersection, turn left onto König-Ludwig-Promenade. From here, follow the route description again.

    Roadbook

    You start at the Tourist Information Füssen and keep left on the sidewalk along Sebastianstraße to Hochstiftstraße. You cross it at the traffic light and go straight ahead past the sports facilities to reach the foot and cycle path towards Forggensee and the boat harbor, which you follow on your left-hand side. After the Hotel Sommer, at the boat landing stage, keep left and cross Weidachstraße at the house by Lake Forggensee to climb up to König-Ludwig-Promenade and follow it towards the city center. At the end of the promenade, follow Schulhausstraße and, passing behind Hotel Hirsch, return to Kaiser-Maximilian-Platz and the Tourist Information.

    Detour to the Galgenbichl viewpoint: From König-Ludwig-Promenade turn right into Säulingstraße and cross Augsburgerstraße into Dr. Enzinger Straße. At the end of this street, turn right towards Galgenbichl. A field path leads you up the slope, and after about 250 m follow the small trail to the left, which takes you to the Galgenbichl viewpoint. A small bench next to the water reserve invites you to rest.

    Refreshment options can be found in the city center and at the boat harbor in the Mar Y Sol lake gastronomy.
