On the Forggensee circuit, the detour to the Hopfensee is worthwhile. Atmospheric alpine scenery, but there are plenty of them here anyway

The cycle path runs along a road at this point. A small, concrete path leads down to the lake on the left. There is a great view from the shore over the lake. The water is warm, at least we were with our feet in the lake.
