Loop
This Four-Lakes Loop begins in Füssen and winds through the idyllic Faulenbach Valley, known as the “Valley of the Senses.” Along the route, the Mittersee, Obersee, Alatsee, and Weißensee lakes lie in succession. The trail winds gently through dense beech forests, where, with a little luck, you might spot nimble squirrels or colorful woodpeckers. A special highlight is the Alatsee, which is often called the “bleeding lake” because of the rare purple bacteria in its depths and is the setting for many local legends.
