Stations of the Cross and Calvary Hill Roßhaupten

Highlight • Religious Site

As here, the Way of the Cross usually leads up or along the mountain or hill (sometimes also referred to as "Calverian Hill" in memory of Golgotha, where Jesus Christ was crucified) with the - nowadays mostly 14 - stations. Early medieval forerunners of the Ways of the Cross had only 7 stations and were sometimes also referred to as the "walk to the seven footfalls".
In some places, after the fourteenth station, the burial of Jesus, there is another station: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This additional Station of the Cross broadens the view from Good Friday towards the Easter perspective of hope: overcoming death and suffering.

Dragon Trail and Dragon Gorge

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

Very nice hike with funny details and beautiful nature 👍, but good shoes are necessary because the paths directly to the gorge are very muddy and sometimes slippery

View of Lake Forggensee

Highlight • Viewpoint

The paths around the Forggensee open up a new panorama for you from every direction. In the north you have a wonderful view over the water to the Alps.
