Fischbach village loop road

Open
The short round trip through the village Fischbach is perfect, so we can get to know the flower and hiking village more closely.
From the general hiking starting point, the village square Fischbach, we walk along the main street with the many inns and cafes through the village, through forests and meadows near the high altitude health resort Fischbach. On the way back we also pass by the Freizeitland Fischbach. Many benches here invite you to linger and enjoy.
