Loop
This impressive mountain bike tour starts at the shores of Lake Forggensee and leads along the scenic northern shore of Lake Alpsee, passing the historic Burgruine Loch (Loch Castle ruins) and continuing to the tranquil Schwansee. The route follows a diverse mix of paved bike paths and natural forest trails through the royal countryside surrounding Füssen. A major highlight is the constant view of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau Castles, along with discovering the hidden Loch ruins, which were built directly into the cliffside. The trail is technically moderate but requires solid physical fitness due to several climbs.
