Reichenau Off The Beaten Path

There is a little known "Promenade" way that starts behind the public park in Reichenau and goes alll the way further into the valley to end up in HIRSCHWANG... about a 30 minuted walk ... .no hills... just under lovely trees and always alongside the river which in the summer is a nice cool refreshing break and offers little islands to cool off those feet or sit down - get a tan - and ponder on God and the world.

If you start in Reichenau... at the Pavillion in the park, there is a little lake where you can hire boats in the summer and a cafe is beside it... on the far end of the little pond, take a left and you will see the river to your right immediately... follow it down stream 2 min to the next bridge, cross that bridge and then take an immediate right ... the path will meander along a few houses, you will cross a street and also have deserted rail-tracks on your left hand side... just follow these tracks and you will be led alongside the mountains into a most wonderful - tranquil environment.

OTHER TIP: You can also hire a bike from the local gas-station >

And simply enjoy that path cycling and letting your hair down ...
