St. Coloman circular route

The easy circular hike starts at the parking lot of the Tegelbergbahn Schwangau. There you will find disabled parking spaces and disabled toilets. The tour starts from the parking lot in the direction of Schwangau. Here you walk downhill for 0.5 kilometers, 20 meters in altitude (gradient 4%). After passing a wide wooden bridge, turn right and walk along the gravel path alongside the "Pöllat" stream. After about 600 meters, the path crosses a tarred road with little traffic. Shortly before this, the gravel path descends a little. The circular tour then turns left onto the tarred road, which leads directly to the pilgrimage church of St. Coloman. You will reach the church after about 500 meters. There are benches to rest on. After a short rest, the route continues to Schwangau. On the cycle path along the B17, you come directly into the village and onto the sidewalk there. Stay on this path until you reach the town hall. Turn left into the Deichelweg and walk along it. You can enjoy the breathtaking view of the Schwangau mountain scenery and the royal castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau from a bench along the way. Follow the Deichelweg along this wonderful view until you reach the end and turn left onto the footpath. After a few meters, cross Colomanstraße and follow the path next to the road back to the starting point. Here the route climbs another 20 meters over 0.5 kilometers.
