Aufhofen Pond and the Path to the Western Shore

The hike to Aufhofen Pond follows a footpath approximately 100 metres long to the western shore of the pond. The approximately 100 metres can be included as a separate section of the route in your day plan. This means that the hike is connected to a specific destination area at the body of water.

Classification of the Pond

In the district of Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen, Aufhofen Pond is classified as one of the other bathing areas and not as an EU bathing site. For planning a trip around Aufhofen Pond, its classification as an other bathing area is a separate point of reference.

Castle and Ancient Site in the Surrounding Area

Schwaneck is a castle in the area around Aufhofen. Villa Rustica Leutstetten, an ancient site, is also located in the area around Aufhofen. Both historical destinations are in the same area around Aufhofen but belong to different categories. The castle and the ancient site therefore represent two different historical categories within the same area. Visitors interested in culture can include Schwaneck Castle and Villa Rustica Leutstetten, the ancient site, separately in their plans.
