Hidden in the middle of the forest near Hochfirst (706m) you will find the Kammelquelle. The last few meters of the approach are a bit steeper, as you practically ride up the entire Hochfirst. You should definitely leave your bikes at the sign "Zur Kammelquelle" before heading to the spring on foot. The path to the spring only takes about 1 minute. There are 2 benches right at the spring. During my visit, the spring was unfortunately barely flowing.

Beautiful lake, with an interesting power plant and a unique fish ladder!

A shame the railway was abandoned. A suburban train (S-Bahn) would be very useful nowadays. But it's great that the track can be used as a cycle path!

Small quiet road on the other side of the valley from the main road. Signposted as a cycle route. A bit longer than the main road, but much nicer.

The area around Bachtelsee is beautiful for walking and observing the countless water birds in great variety.
