Starting from the Schmuzerstrasse in the south or the Tassiloweg in the north, a footpath leads directly to the very impressive tree, which rises in the immediate vicinity of the monastery wall. The monastery yard is about 150 meters away.

Overall, a lovely tour in a beautiful setting. Unfortunately, the trail for this route no longer exists, so I had to improvise. At times, you walk on relatively busy roads, and some forest paths are a bit rough. But all in all, very beautiful!

From Wessobrunn to Paterzell. Unfortunately the path from Zellsee to the hamlet of the same name is closed. Therefore a detour via Schönwag to Zellsee.
