Nice round starting at the ice stadium/bike park in Schongau. Via beautiful paths and small streets to the Lech reservoir.

Lush meadows and views of the mountains, that's how you imagine the Allgäu. From Schongau, the route heads south along the Lech, which is particularly photogenic just outside Lechbruck am See.
