Tips from the Community

Joschi
April 5, 2026, Das Ochsenkreuz

A farmer loaded his ox team with wood. On top, he placed his small child. Suddenly, the oxen are said to have bolted, with the small child sitting on top behind them. In his great distress, the farmer vowed that where the wagon came to a stop, he would erect a large cross in thanks. At the foot of the mountain, the ox team actually came to a stop, and as if by a miracle, the child remained unharmed.

The Goachat lies between Schrobenhausen and Hörzhausen and is an important ecosystem. The name comes from the Bavarian word "Oacha," meaning oak.

This oak tree is an official natural monument, and given its condition, there are real concerns about its future…

The tour takes you off-road along secluded country lanes. Great for nature lovers but unsuitable for road cyclists.
