At Marklkofen, it's worth making a detour to the "Meander Valley": There, the Vils meanders untamed through the landscape like it did 100 years ago - a refuge for rare animals and plants. In addition, everything worth knowing about the entire region can be found there on an information platform.

Vilstal Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

A large reservoir between Reisbach and Frontenhausen, ideal for cooling off your legs after a long tour. Lots of space for children and dogs to run around and play.
You can admire the surfers in the summer and the ice skaters in the winter.

Vilstal Reservoir near Steinberg

Highlight • Lake

The reservoir was created in the 1970s primarily to hold back floods. Local recreation comes naturally. It is a pleasure to cycle along the Vils and the reservoir past fields, meadows and meadows.

Franz Eberhofer Roundabout (Niederkaltenkirchen)

Highlight • Monument

A must for all crazy Eberhofer fans. Just stupid to look at a roundabout. But it's part of being a fan. 😉😄🤣

Stepping Stones at the Mäandertal Water Playground

Highlight • Structure

Water playground in the meandering valley of Marklkofen.
Unfortunately there is no information sign.
If you go from the Mäandertal car park across the meadow to the Vils, you will find him. Most of the time the water level is low, so jump into the water or over the stones.
