Around 40 kilometers of groomed cross-country ski trails for classic skiing and skating give Argenbühl a distinctive character in winter. Trail conditions can vary from year to year. If cross-country skiing is a factor in choosing when to travel, check the latest grooming conditions in advance.

Comparing cycling and hiking routes

The Argenwege cycling loop is 41.29 kilometers long, takes about three hours, and is rated moderate. It runs along the Untere Argen and offers views of the Adelegg and the Alps. This gives anyone who likes to plan their days around a longer bike ride both a specific time frame and scenic views to look forward to.

A shorter hiking option is the Argental Loop Trail No. 7: this easy circular hiking trail covers 7.28 kilometers and is listed as taking two hours. Along the way, it crosses the historic Neumühle wooden bridge and follows the Untere Argen through Ratzenried, home to the historic castle.

The estimated times are about three hours and two hours, respectively; the hiking trail is rated easy, while the cycling tour is rated moderate. This makes it possible to weigh up two different time frames when planning. As route information may be updated, check the latest details before setting out.

Summer swimming and getting here

The Moorbad natural swimming area in Eglofs-Burg offers a natural setting for swimming in summer. As it is a seasonal attraction, it’s worth checking its status for the season before making firm plans for a day of swimming.
