Loop
This picturesque route leads through the rolling alpine foothills of the Westallgäu south of Wangen. The path explores the historic area around Neuravensburg, following a diverse mixture of gentle meadow paths, shaded forest trails, and reinforced riverside walkways. A central highlight is the Neuravensburg ruins, perched prominently above the village, and the spectacular confluence of the Upper and Lower Argen, where the two mountain rivers merge. In the natural alluvial forests and on the gravel banks of the Argen, kingfishers, dippers, and with some luck, goosanders can be brilliantly observed, while the open Allgäu landscape provides a habitat for kites. The route involves moderate inclines around the castle hill but remains a delight for hikers wishing to combine river romance and history.
