    Mountain biking

    121 kilometers - this is the route the water travels after it gushes out of the earth here in the middle of the Black Forest. Gradually, the little trickle becomes a river, which flows into the Rhine at the end.

    Hiking

    On the way to the source of the Danube you come here again past a spring stream that flows down the Rhine - the European watershed is close (at the Martin's Chapel)

    Hiking

    Small quiet spring (the exact source location unfortunately not entirely visible) with a great stream. Quiet because not really developed for tourism like the source of the Danube a few hundred meters as the crow flies. Thus ideal for a break to rest.
