A beautiful, very elaborately restored old railway bridge. For me it was a very nice surprise when this bridge suddenly appeared. There is nothing left but to take a break …

Rest area on the gravel bank

Highlight • Beach

Nice to cool off in the Iller, as you can walk in here flat. The place is often used by day trippers for swimming and sunbathing.

For the first half of the day's stage we were on the very hilly Iller cycle path. Only in the last few kilometers were we able to cycle directly along the river bank.

The second stage today is the stage of opposites. Sometimes close to the river, sometimes far away, the Iller from above, in the Iller 🤗, mountain up mountain down. Over roads and single trails. Everything included. Nice stop in Altusried, Home of the Meggle Butter (with factory outlet, if you
without a bike and almost 30 degrees 🙈) a lot …

This is a tour for the fit. So it's not for me. I suffered. In terms of strength, in terms of the weather (rain, strong winds)...
So next time I'll do it with an e-bike and in good weather.

Today we not only went along the Iller but also through the very beautiful Allgäu. The Alps in view for the first time. The highlight, the foot bath in the Iller.
There was a bit more going on on the Iller cycle path today, but still very manageable.
