Mountain biking

In Lochautal from Wohnsdorf to Plankenfels (or vice versa) you usually drive on single trails along the river. A beautiful route that is highly recommended for scenic reasons.

Beautiful valley. The Lochau valley behind the town of Plankenfels is one of the lesser-known and therefore quiet valleys in Franconian Switzerland. Ideal for the mountain bike

A very beautiful valley. With many weirs on the Lochau. Indescribable peace and relaxation. A valley that sometimes makes the paths difficult to move forward, but you find ways and that is something special
