At different points in the village the letters of the village name are placed. All points can be hiked along a circular path or reached by bike. In the production of the individual letters different materials were used, depending on the artist's style. At each art object you will also find a short description for interpretation.

An exciting circular route not only for art lovers, but for the whole family. Impressive creations of letters embedded in the Jungholz nature with all its advantages!
