Abraham wayside shrine at 791 m. Very beautiful hiking trail, with an autumnal atmosphere.

Beautiful view of the treetops...YES To be honest, I expected more from the observation tower... But it was still nice to have been up there 🫶

The sturdy, tall tower is now surrounded by equally tall trees - the view over the surrounding area to Reichenau is still clear, but towards the Alps a row of trees is already blocking the view.

Unfortunately, cycling is only permitted on the road there, and prohibition signs dominate near the chapel.
