Description

The march starts in Vermol. The gourmet tour first leads through an idyllic forest slightly downhill to the Chapfensee. The reservoir, which is hardly noticed as such, is embedded in the original landscape. At the entrance to the lake there are many fireplaces that make you want a sausage from the grill. The easy hike continues around the lake and past a protected moor. The path returns along a beautifully landscaped forest path and soon you reach Vermol.

Hidden Gem

On the way there are several places that invite you to sit, picnic and enjoy.

Safety Note

The Chapfensee is a popular destination for bikers. Therefore, please also pay attention to other trail users.

Equipment

Normal hiking equipment. Depending on the weather, good footwear (hiking boots) is recommended, otherwise light trekking shoes are sufficient for the tour.
