The place name Zellen refers to a former monk's cell. On the lake shore near Zellen there was a parish church called Zellin, the place belonged to Linsen in 1356, as a plaque there indicates (Wikipedia: Niedersonthofner See).

Start at the bus stop Oberdorf Siedlung.
Finish at the train station Martinszell.

There is paid parking at the lake.

February 23, 2022,Um den Niedersonthofener See

There is not much to write about this. Entertaining round around the lake, mostly on gravel paths.

The starting point was the hiking car park at Seehof near Oberdorf. This costs 3€ for the day ticket.
From there always along the shore until you arrive back at the starting point after about 1.5 hours

A very nice hiking trail. 🥾 We passed a cute chapel ⛪️. The bells 🔔 of the Allgäu pasture cattle can be heard 🐮🐮
& it is very quiet and idyllic. We were able to see the lake 💦 in varied 🐠 perspectives. 🥰⛰️☀️
