Turn-by-turn directions

The jogging tour starts at the Rüfiplatz. From there the asphalted path leads uphill to Tannberg. The path becomes narrower and through the forest and meadows we reach an asphalt path after 10 minutes. Follow the signs for Zug. Shortly afterwards we cross the road and an asphalted path leads downhill towards the forest swimming pool. The forest swimming pool is circumnavigated and then we cross the Lech. We reach a Kneipp station. The wide path on the left leads back via Omesberg to Lech and to the starting point, the post garage.
