Historic Center of Wendelstein

Highlight • Historical Site

Thanks to the railway and the Ludwigskanalhafen, Wendelstein experienced an economic boom in the 19th century.

The trades of the wood turners and metal pushers as well as three large quarry companies made the place an industrial center.

Rooty Descent

Highlight • Trail

Only recommended when it's completely dry. You should look at the "line" beforehand because you'll only be riding on roots. Be careful!

König-Ludwig Canal Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The old canal is always worth a visit, whether you are hiking or cycling, and the forest playground right next door is a nice change for the little ones.
