Description
The village square in Bad Schönau is the ideal starting point for hikes and walks. This is also where you will find the tourist information office and, thanks to its central location, you can reach the starting point of the tour from various hotels and accommodation providers in Bad Schönau. The walk is also ideal for families with children or less fit hikers due to its low difficulty and short walking time. Initially along the Zöbernbach stream and then a large part of the way through the Tiefenbach floodplain, you are surrounded by nature and accompanied by the babbling of the streams. The path to Tiefenbach is a pleasant, almost flat, shady walk with little traffic. At the end of the path in the village of Krumbach, you can stop off at Gasthof Buchegger, which has a children's playground, home-baked bread and freshly caught trout from its own farm.
- Equipment Always take suitable maps with you. Wear sturdy shoes appropriate for the route, bring sun and rain protection, as well as water and a snack. Take your mobile phone and save the mountain rescue emergency number: 140
